    Hello all!  Sorry to be another newb in a sea of geniuses, but we need your help getting on the air by Feb 1st in Portland, OR.  I've spent 6 years working to get an FCC FM permit, and we must get on the air by Feb 1st.  Our non-profit is a startup and just getting going, so a Xubuntu box from Free Geek and Airtime seems like the perfect solution for us to get required FCC announcements to fire at the top of every hour.

    You can find out more about our new station here:
    http://ftp.s65904.gridserver.com/CEBSFAQHandout.pdf
    and our future domain forwards to unfinished corporate site that will launch in February: http://xray.fm

    Here is the error when I try to run the easy install:

    don't install airtime with easy setup, but prefer this way :
