Any ideas?
Note that if you save your kitchen selections to a file other than the default file called Apache_Helmi_WM6 Selections.txt, when you restart PPC-BuildOS from the desktop icon, you will continue to get that error. The reason is that the default Helmi selections doesn't have a carrier selection and the desktop shortcut always starts up telling PPC-BuildOS to load that selections file.

I save my selections to my own file and then just edited the desktop icon shortcut to replace the parameter pointing to the helmi file with my own file. That way I don't have to keep opening my file from the menu.

Of course, if you just save your selections in the default helmi file after you've done a carrier selection, you shouldn't be getting this error.
