so there is no solution for that? Except clear space and mowing temp file. And these 2 GB are some junk that is stored in temp file and after that i can delete it?

Correct.  It is the space that Windows needs to install that large program.  It should be cleanable.  Keep in mind that if you install materials libraries in SQL, then it will likely default to C:\ as well.

I've installed it and clean temp folder and disk space is still taken, so inventor still install something on C, but i changed every path in install program that i can find

How much space? 

There's always going to be things on C:\ like registry, icons, profile registrations and shortcuts, Windows installer information, so on and so forth.

about 2GB, much more than few shortcuts etc need

Did you install the materials library?  This will install SQL Server and content library databases to your C:\.

Maybe. I installed default components except service packs. Materials library are not necessary? It can't be install on other partition?
