Hi, and sorry for the delayed reply. Somehow I missed this mail in my
inbox. You know, when I open evo using the terminal window, the evo GUI
opens and seems to work fine! I'll have to take some more time to work
further with it, but opening it in this way it does not crash as soon as
I click "continue". I do not know what that was happening when I start
it from the applications folder. 

I didn't get the evo version-- it is on my colleagues computer. But if
there are any further issues, I'll write back and give the evo version
as well.

Thanks,
Swarup
