   I have that directory structure. My issue is everytime I run it says a   
   required file is not found, but I have no idea what file it is talking about.   
   Some files referenced in golded.conf are not there, because they werent   
   included in the package.   
      
   ... It said "insert disk #3", but only two will fit...
