(There is no file "/Users/robertblackstone/context-minimals-04-06-11/texmf/tex/plain/base/plain.tex") provide a proper tex root (like '. setuptex /something/tex')" Only if I change the working directory to /Users/robertblackstone/context-minimals-04-06-11/tex/ the response is: "Setting "/Users/robertblackstone/context-minimals-04-06-11/tex" as ConTeXt root." and I can process tex-files both with mkii and mkiv . The resulting pdf, however, placed in the same working directory, is not correct. I found, helped by ConTeXt garden, that I could activate ConTeXt-minimals-04-06-11 on this machine by typing: "export PATH=/Users/robertblackstone/ConTeXt-minimals-04-06-11/tex/texmf-osx-ppc/bin:$PATH" from any directory and get the correct output. I accordingly changed the TeXShop engine and that also works now. The only issue still remaining is the interruption during the installation process. I have no clue as to what could be the cause. I tried to avoid it by running "umask 0022" and even "umask 0002" before creating the new minimals directory, but that did not help. But using ctrl-D a few times, as Mojca suggested, when the installation process stops midway, eventually results in a usable minimals. Maybe some functions do not work but I have not yet discovered any. So that might not be a real problem after all. Thanks for the help.
