This could easily be included in the windows setup.

- Look for Registry key
"HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\.NETFramework\InstallRoot"
This contains something like "c:\winnt\Microsoft.NET\Framework".

- Create a new directory "mono" in there.
- Copy mscorwks.dll there. NOTE: On servers mscorsrv.dll is called!!!! (We
must do both.)

I can add this to the lcc program, that already does the windows setup.
