OSX Installation Problem

I'm having some trouble installing Plone on OSX, mostly down
to my own
stupidity, nevertheless I'd appreciate some help. I'd
downloaded both the
Intel and PPC installers as I was initially going to install
Plone on my G4
server, and then decided to install it on my MacBook as I'd
like to play
with it when I'm away this weekend. However, I managed to
install the PPC
version on my MacBook by accident. The installer got stuck
while finishing
(unsurprisingly), so I force quit and went to install the
Intel version. It
wouldn't let me do so initially so I deleted the PPC Plone
files and tried
again, however it still won't work.

The installer will let me install the startup module however
it maintains
that Plone is already installed and it won't let me do so
again. I've looked
for an uninstall option but haven't found one, however I
checked what the
installer creates and have deleted everything - Plone, Plone
startup, and
the Plone user in NetInfo. Still no dice.

Would building from source help? I'd like to try and avoid
doing this as
although I'm not afraid of bash, I'm not a *nix guy and I've
never built
anything from scratch before. Also, as I said, I'd ideally
like to have a
play with this at the weekend when I'm travelling so a
solution involving
the OSX binary would be preferable. If there's no quick fix
however, it's
not urgent. Thanks!

You will need to also remove the installer's package
receipts at /Library/Receipts/Plone*.pkg

There is no uninstall script, but the uninstall instructions
are detailed in the installer's readme file.
