about the boot.ini issue
,----[ Quote ]
| Shortly after releasing EVE Online: Trinity at 22:04 GMT on Wednesday, 5
| December, we started receiving reports that the Classic to Premium graphics
| content upgrade was causing problems to players by deleting the file C:
| \boot.ini, which is a Windows system startup file. In some cases the computer
| was not able to recover on the next startup and would not start until the
| file had been fixed. In this dev blog I want to tell you how this happened.
|
| In the weeks leading up to the release of Trinity, one of our concerns was
| how to deliver this update to our players in a very short amount of time and
| to players that might not all have a good internet connection. Significant
| effort was therefore put into making the Classic to Premium graphics content
| upgrade as small as possible at various stages in the process.
