Parallel Tomcat 5 and 6 services on Windows

Greetings,
I would like to test Tomcat 6 on Windows, however I would still like to
retain the previous Tomcat 5 installation (along with the Tomcat 5 service).
I have downloaded the Tomcat 6.0.10 installer from the prerelease location.
However, the installation threw an error when it was about to install the
Tomcat 6 service (note that I have unchecked the Service option in the
component selection dialogue). Ignoring the error allowed me to finish the
installation.

Is there some kind of problem with the installation of the Tomcat 6 service
in the setup wizard? I have been able to resolve this problem by downloading
and extracting the ZIP version of Tomcat6, and installing the Tomcat 6
service by running

services.bat install tomcat6

(the CATALINA_HOME must have been temporarily set to the tomcat6
installation directory).

This process allowed me to have paralelly installed two services for both
Tomcats.
