Texlive 2008 on Windows (Vista)
http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Running_Mark_IV; says I have to reinstall texlive 2008 if it has been installed in a path containing spaces such; C:\Program Files (x86)\texlive\2008 Which also happens to be the default install location. Is there a workaround? And I think adding a section to http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Running_Mark_IV will be really helpful.

Is anyone actually testing texlive 2008 on vista? Or is it just me :)
Is Vista that different?
On WINE, with TL installed to C:\texlive\2008, I got a little further, after
editing context.cmd because wine set %~dp0% to the current path:
@echo off
setlocal
REM set ownpath=%~dp0%
set ownpath=C:\texlive\2008\bin\win32\
texlua "%ownpath%mtxrun.lua" --script context %*
endlocal
Having done this, I still see "not found" errors:
$ context --make
[... locating, loading ...]
MtxRun | using script: C:/texlive/2008/texmf-dist/scripts/context/lua/mtx-contex
t.lua
MtxRun | running command: luatools --make --compile cont-enFile not found
MtxRun | running command: luatools --make --compile cont-nlFile not found
MtxRun | running command: luatools --make --compile mptopdfFile not found
Have you tried using luatools to see if "mtx-context.lua" is found?
It should be a trivial exercise to just move your TeXLive to a path without
the space. Somewhere the changes to the registry are mentioned and
are minimal, just the PATH setting, Also, watch for problems with settings
left from old TeX installs (many MiKTeX users have TEXINPUTS).
