Hello Ken,

Did the drag and drop operation complete successfully?
You must watch the operation carefully; occasionally files do not copy.
If an error occurs, there is a README file (perhaps with OSX in the filename) 
in the .dmg file that provides instructions for copying with the cp command in 
a Terminal window.

I don't have insight into the specific error message you report.
