I reinvoked the setup /net thing and it offered to modify the installation, 
from there I could add the Palm support. Works great!

Now the only problem I'm facing is that whenever I try to access the
Address Book via "View->Address Book" or "Explorer->Address Book",
StarOffice will exit abruptly... Anyone an idea? Also trying to open
"Explorer->Database" will crash.
