Hi,

I am testing texlivetest2007-inst-20070204.iso on an Intel Mac
machine running Mac OS X 10.4.8. Here are some problems I
encountered.

1.
After starting install-tl.sh, B option shows:

Available sets of binaries:
  i386_linux: Intel x86 with GNU/Linux
  powerpc_darwin: PowerPC with MacOSX/Darwin
  win32: Windows

Why there is no i386_darwin? I wonder.

2.
S option in S option (aka. Press <S> to see collections for this scheme),
did shows the collections of the scheme, but it disappeared at once,
why? I'm using Terminal.app.

3.
in C option, some text is cutted, for example:

I [X] Miscellaneous extra generic m
M [ ] LaTeX support for the humanit
Z [ ] Packages for drawings graphic

It that possible to remove this limitation?

4. If install-tl.sh is not running with sudo, it will not complain until
it start trying to make directory and copy files, I think this behavior
can be improved.

Regards,
jjgod.
