I'd normally suspect BLODA, except there really isn't much installed on this system: http://i.imgur.com/YBFQx5p.png Anyway, I rebooted, removed the .done extension from "base-files-profile.sh" (the only file that had one), and ran the installer again. Unfortunately, I'm still getting the same errors.
