No clue on the LiveCD issue, but I found that this highlighting file was better:

If you can't fix it, you don't own it.
Andy,
Thanks for the link, I can't wait to try Nick's highlighting out as soon
as I can get LinuxCNC to install... what was the result of your tests
last night? I know Tom_itx had the same problem that I did and gave up
and used the install script.

It just worked, no problems and a working LinuxCNC install.
The difference might be that I have always been installing to a new blank drive
(real or VM)
Gene,
The offending file is
usr/share/gtksourceview-2.0/language-specs/ngc.lang AFAIK if you just
delete it you will get normal black and white which is less annoying
than rainbow random colors from the current one. Anyway deleting it
worked for me.

I'm just going out to the shop with a new LiveCD burned at 1x and will
boot on it then delete the existing partition and format the hard drive
then try to install

I see that Nook has an 8x2.5 screw & a 'keyed' ball nut that comes in 195mm
and up lengths. That nut is 20mm in diameter, which if I can figure how to
attach it to the bottom of the slide, might be usable. Backlash rated at
.045mm. That's .0017", and 5x more accurate that what I have.

I remember seeing this when the OPEN_FILES= statement in the ini file didnt
point to a valid file.

This got me wondering how fast my new 525 and sata HD is .
So I got the stopwatch out:
8 sec to the main screen(about time to turn on the air, check
the oil level and walk around to the front to the front of my machine.
not too shabby, but not near 3 sec.

They have a nice selection and pretty informative website, but no
prices. You need to 'get a quote' so I called and talked to a rep, and
felt that they are not a small/hobbyist customer oriented.

IIRC You have D525. Any particular reason not to boot/instal from usb
drive instead of using more and more cd/dvd matrices? Usb has always
worked like a charm for me with all my D510/D525 installs. But I have
OPEN_FILES = ""
was the ini setting
However it worked up to the point that I tried to edit ngc.lang to "fix"
the highlighting

I've seen this reported before and always followed by a big chorus
of "works for me!" I think something really must be going on.

I should point out that I am owed no credit for spotting this, I am
just reporting it. It was, not unexpectedly, Jepler who worked it out.
