Hi, I tried to do an install of NOMAD last night(via kstars) and it stopped after about 30secs. I could not see why. I then tried to download it manually and it was really slow, I have a 12Mb download speed. Only 200Mb came down before it stopped. I am going to try again tonight if the source file is ok? Once I have the file down, can I just import it? I am running short of space on the disk, does the import process just use the existing file or does it need more space?
