A couple of questions ...
- By "installing Bioconductor", I am assuming that you are using
getBioC()? Can you cut & paste some of the relevant output from your
session?
- I'm not super familiar w/ the Mac style R, so my terminology is probably
incorrect here, but are you using the R-aqua or the unix-style R? That
could make a big difference.

I don't currently see a problem w/ the repository, using R-1.9.1, I just
did a BioC install and all went well, including marray. Could you give
more details?
Thanks
