Question

The installer pops up a dialog box requesting selection of a folder in which to unpack files. I have selected a folder on a drive with available space, but the installer keeps showing me the dialog box. What should I do?

Answer

If the installer pops up a dialog box that says:

  Please select another location to extract the
  installer to:

        Choose...
        Cancel
then your copy of the installer is probably corrupt. Unfortunately, the installer does not always detect that it is corrupt. To resolve the error, please download the installer again. You may need to clear your browser cache to ensure that a new copy is fetched from CodeSourcery's servers.
