I used the fmtutil.conf that came with the latest binaries.
I had a minimal texmf system and after I downloaded etexbase.zip the
format files elatex.efmt, etex.efmt, pdfelatex.efmt, pdfetex.efmt were
generated together with the *.fmt counterparts. Invoking *elatex*,
pdfelatex etc works fine but invoking *latex* will generate the *same*
error that "latex.efmt" not found as they are *not* generated.
BTW, I don't know much about e-tex, what are the major
difference/improvements?
Cheers,
