Hi, I just downloaded this version of SAGE: 

sage-4.6-OSX-32bit-10.4-i386-Darwin.dmg 

and attempted to install it on my macbook pro with Intel Core 2 Duo, 
running 
Mac OS X 10.4.11. After 

(1) dragging and dropping the sage folder from dmg into Applications 
(2) Double-Clicking on the new sage icon 
(3) Selecting "Terminal" and Clicking on "Update" 

I got this error message in the newly opened terminal window:

Welcome to Darwin!

   pid = open(pidfile).read() 
IOError: [Errno 22] Invalid argument

After this, SAGE would not do even basic calculations for me. I got a 
lengthy error message from "3*11". Is there an easy way to fix this? I 
actually tried reinstalling and the same thing 
happened. Perhaps I have some bad data from an earlier version of sage that 
needs to be expunged. Thanks.
