Summary: Please help on installation

Initial Comment:
I have problem to follow the instruction on installation at:

http://nant.sourceforge.net/release/latest/help/introducti
on/installation.html

-- Installing from binaries:

In step 4:

Ensure the bin folder in your NAnt installation is in your 
PATH environment variable. 

In Windows, a common method to do this is to create an 
environment variable NANT_HOME that contains the 
folder you installed NAnt to. 
Then add %NANT_HOME%\bin to your PATH variable. 
Both of these should be System variables. 

What does it exactly mean? Can you offer an example on 
that?

-- Installing from source

When I tried Installing from source and use NMake, I got 
an error:

fatal error U1077: 'cp' is not recornized as an internal or 
external command

I checked the Makefile.nmake in

 nant-0.85-rc2-src\nant-0.85-rc2\Makefile.nmake

, it conatains the 'cp' command. Is it the "Copy' 
command in Linux? Do I have to install Linux?

I tried to change 'cp' to 'copy' in the Makefile.namke, it 
started to build successfully but in the end it still failed:

  userdoc:

     Uable to load file 'NAnt.Core'

Drieseng, thank you so much for the help. Sorry that I could 
not reply to you ealier. 

After I change "cp" to "copy", the error message is different 
this time. I am sure why. Here is the message:

...
     [exec]             BUILD SUCCEEDED
     [exec]
     [exec]             Total time: 640 seconds.
     [exec]

install-windows:

     [echo] Installing NAnt to 'F:\Program\NAnt' ...
     [copy] Copying 406 files to 'F:\Program\NAnt'.

install:

BUILD FAILED

Target 'Files' does not exist in this project.

Total time: 663.4 seconds.

NMAKE : fatal error U1077: 'bootstrap\NAnt.exe' : return 
code '0x1'
Stop.
----------------
I will download the updated release and try again.

step 4:

This can be easily done using My Computer -> Properties -> 
Advanced Tab -> Environment Variables

But its not really required, you can also just specifiy the full 
path to NAnt.exe whenever you want to run a build file.

Install error:

The "cp" command was in fact a mistake, this is now correct 
in cvs (and will be in the next nightly build and release)

Can you provide more information on the error you got in 
the "userdoc" target ?
