[PD] VERY strange OSX PDP install problem

[vade]

HAH!

Not to be off topic, but I swear every machine that ive ever built and 
cut badly myself on.. has worked. The machines I havent hurt myself on 
have been horribly performing buggy peices of crap.

Makes me think....

Im just going to start painting hexagrams with my blood on the inside 
of every new machine...

Anyway ;)
