Ok I have followed the directions, everything goes along fine for a bit, then I get a registry lock error and have to manually instal the problem package, it does not do it to every package, but I have to babysit it. I also have to comment to package out of the package list to prevent the exclusive registry lick error.
Any suggestions or ideas? Thanks in advance for your time and assistance!
