Good suggestion - yes! I just installed it on 089/402 HostFS and it
appears to run normally. I then did another install on 088/517 and it
would load to the icon bar (as before) and fail on attempting to clear
previous images with the same error message as before. So maybe the
problem lies with RPCEmu 088, which is presumably responsible for
creating the HostFS filesystem, rather than 517; in which case
upgrading to 089/517 might fix the problem.
