Hi
Please help me out with this. Not my cup of tea, but I need to get through with this.
I use a Macbook Pro'09, 2.26 GHz, 2GB RAM running on Snow Leopard. In order to install WINE to use some Windows apps, I tried installing Macports 1.8.1-10.6-SnowLeopard using the package install procedure. At the last installation step, the installer paused with 'Less then a minute remaining" for about 15 minutes. I checked for macports directory in the Finder, and found a couple of folders, two of which, 'rsync.macports.org' and 'macports' were gaining size in excess of 70MB's. All the time, the installer still at "Lsss than a minute remaining". I had to force quit the installer lest it screws with something I'd not be able to rectify later.. and seek advice, which I am.
Because it did not prompt me to install Xcode, so I am assuming it came pre installed with the OS X DVD. I have X11 installed already as I use GIMP.
What could be the issue? Should I let the installer continue?
Thanks in advance.
