[support] Installing from profiles

[Alison]

Tried that and it just stops part way through running the install script with just a blank screen. That''s the reason why I thought I needed to do more. I am familar with the dialog you speak of, which is similar to installing "distributions". The tb_sirate_starter distribution does that.

Everything seems to be there but how do I get to it. So looking for a "Dummies intro to installing from  "Profiles". Thanks.
