Hi Alan,

It doesn't matter if first-setup.sh, or setuptex, whichever, installs two directories 
	/tex/texmf-osx-64/bin 
and 
	/tex/texmf-osx-intel/bin
in the folder where you have first-setup.sh. As far as I am concerned, running Mac OS X 10.6.2, I even removed manually the folder /tex/texmf-osx-intel/bin, and everything works fine.

Something which seems strange to me is the line you have in your .bash_profile which has:
. /Applications/ConTeXtMinimals/tex/setuptex /Applications/ConTeXtMinimals/tex/

this seems unorthodox… In any case this 
	/Applications/ConTeXtMinimals/tex/
should not be there and you should remove it.

In order to locate the problem, you may remove this line and then in a Terminal window issue the command:
	source /Applications/ConTeXtMinimals/tex/setuptex
(Using source is better than the"." in my humble opinion). 
Next issue the command
	which context
in order to see what binary context is going to be executed when you typeset a file. 
Finally, assuming that you have the right context binary, typeset a test file, named for instance myfile.tex, by issuing the command:
	context myfile.tex
in the directory where myfile.tex is present.

Good luck: OK
