Ciao Eric, thanks for looking at this.
I'll try to reinstall now.
Yes, I'm using the correct install.pl script (taken from the
correct web pointer and with the size you mention (128237),
though I don't know the date.

will check on the above when doing a fresh installation
(during the re-installation it was the first error message).

Is there a quick way to check if the LOAD area has 00 code or 01 code?
(starting up AIPS gives me a message that its 00, but can this
be trusted...)
I have only one (overwritten) LOAD area now so can't directly compare.
Theres no FITDISK (supposed to be a new task in 01) in the LOAD
area, so perhaps its 00 code. I'll look into the `improvements'
documentation of 01 over 00 and check.

I didn't know about the AIPSPATH.SH file before installing, and later
found that all of OLD NEW and TEST were set to 00.
Okay, will play with it now. This quick answer was only because
time was short for you.
