Installation hangs for MSDE2000A on XP SP1

I'm trying to install MSDE2000A on XP SP1. I issue the command:
setup /SAPWD="mypassword" /L*v C:\MSDERelA\setup.log
The installation progresses for a couple of minutes and then hangs. The
last entry in the log is:
MSI (s) (DC:34) [06:37:29:140]: Executing op:

If I cancel the setup, it rolls back from this point.
I noted the information at:
http://support.microsoft.com/default...b;EN-US;841061
But this really deals with running the setup from an application, not from
the Microsoft supplied installer at a command line. Anyway, I tried this as
well and wrote a small application to run the installation as shown in the
KB. No change in behavior, the end-result is the same and the last log is
the same one.
BTW, I meant to say this is XP SP2, not SP1...
Sorry

please verify, using thetask manager, the setupre.exe is actually hanging...
if this is the case, kill this process... the installation should go on and
proceed with success...
