Hi John G,

Which set of software were you installing, and were you using the DVD distributed by FIRST? The only reason that this error should appear is if the nidist.id files were actually missing from your distributions. This could possibly happen if you downloaded the files from your network and your firewall blocked some of the files from downloading, or if you are installing on a machine without a DVD drive and you didn't copy the entire contents of the FRC DVD.
