Still no luck!!! :-(

Okay, so I got really upset with teTeX so I decided to get rid of it.  Earlier 
I said that I was using Fedora Core 2.  Now I am sitting on a SuSE 8.0 Pro 
machine.  I did the following:

1)  Uninstalled whatever TeX came with SuSE
2)  Downloaded and installed from texlive2003-inst-20030928.iso
3)  I chose not to install latex.  Just context and pdftex alongwith whatever 
texlive said about anything being "essential files"
4)  Next I wiped off whatever ConTeXt came with texlive and followed 
instructions on this page:

http://home.salamander.com/~wmcclain/context-help.html

to install the latest ConTeXt from pragma website.

5) Then I found that adobekb.tex was still NOT installed on my system---yes 
the latest ConTeXt from pragma-ade still does not have adobekb.tex.  But as 
Hans suggested, I do have the file type-akb.tex.  As Patrick suggested, I 
downloaded and installed adobekb.tex in the TeX tree.

6)  So after all this, I try both type-akb and adobekb and the palatino font 
still refuses to cooperate.

Here are the errors that I am getting:

With this:

\usetypescript[berry][ec] % or [8r]
\usetypescript[palatino][ec] %
\setupbodyfont[palatino]
\starttext
The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog.
\stoptext

gives me the following:
