Hi,

I'm trying to install GsDevKit_Home and during the execution of createStone devKit_33 3.3.0 (it is the same with 3.4), I get the following error:

=================
   GsDevKit script: startStone -b -N devKit_33

I'm not sure what is causing this, if you have an idea what I could try to look for, I can maybe help find the source of the problem.
