Hi Matt,

 > You’re sure you’re selecting the root of the eclipse directory for 
your install?

You're right. I could swear that on previous attempts I had checked for 
this but in this attempt I had re-downloaded Eclipse and it seems to 
have configured its folders differently. There was another "Eclipse" 
folder inside the main folder. That was the correct one and now FB is 
installed. (! :-)

My previous attempt was with Eclipse 3.2. I'm pretty sure that I double 
checked that the folder had "plugins" and "features" folders, and yet 
still got the same message. Could the FB installer have been balking at 
3.2? I've since noticed that the system requirements page says "3.2 not 
yet supported". The installer says "3.1 or higher". What's the scoop on 
this? I want to use Hibernate Tools, which require Eclipse 3.2. My 
current tentative plan is to install both 3.1 and 3.2, and use 3.1 for 
Flex and 3.2 for setting up the Hibernate stuff that Flex will run on 
top of. Does this make the most sense from your point of view?

Thanks,

Douglas
