First off Paul, thanks for the prompt reply, I sincerely appreciate this - can't imagine Apple or MS ever replying to my bugs :-) Secondly, the installation went thru without me changing the source of target devices - i simply tried the whole process again. That in itself is strange but I guess, for an opensource software, its acceptable. Cheers! Shantanu
