Right now the minimals installation fails for me in various ways, depending on how I do it. Running the graphical installer I get two dialogs "update failed error code 1" and "make failed error code 1". Using the command line method I get a message about a vtable error when I try to run context. (It looked like the one mentioned in earlier postings, sorry I don't have the exact message now). I want just MKIV + extras (and intend to try TexWorks). Any hints appreciated.
