Comment(by martinl):

 Replying to [comment:21 marisn]:

 > I just tested GRASS 7 on Vista. It seems to pass the "welcome" screen
 just fine, still CLI (CMD) is not set up correctly (LOCATION_NAME not
 set). g.gui starts fine, still it is not possible to import any data as
 vector import wizard fails to see any layers in a shapefile and raster
 data importing fails when calling r.in.gdal with "file doesn't exist"
 error. Exiting from CMD also fails with "Failed to start shell 'C:\Program
 Files\GRASS GIS 7.0.svn\msys\bin\sh.exe'".
 >
 > My guess - elimination of CMD part on windows as per #1891 AND
 elimination of touching shell in ANY way is the only solution to fix this
 issue.

 please could you do the test again with most recent GRASS 7.0 version?
