[missing-sync-palmos-talk] Installing Missing Sync for Palm OS v4 on 10.2.8 - Looping

[Martin von Weissenberg]

OK, I managed to get the installer to finish when I launched it as 
root.  Actually it's enough to open it using sudo:

   sudo open "/Volumes/Missing Sync/Missing Sync for Palm OS Installer"

The software is now installed and seems to perform as advertised. :)
