Hi

I have downloaded and installed R 2.10.1 to my Mac running OS X 10.5.8.

Hardware Overview:

   Model Name:	iMac
   Model Identifier:	iMac7,1
   Processor Name:	Intel Core 2 Duo
   Processor Speed:	2.4 GHz
   Number Of Processors:	1
   Total Number Of Cores:	2
   L2 Cache:	4 MB
   Memory:	1 GB
   Bus Speed:	800 MHz
   Boot ROM Version:	IM71.007A.B03
   SMC Version (system):	1.20f4
   Serial Number (system):	W87438YWX86
   Hardware UUID:	00000000-0000-1000-8000-001B63AA8FF1
[In case this is relevant!]

I have tgz files for all the packages [plus some other files] in 
/Applications/tgz10.1   .
When I attempt to use the R Package Installer and select the tzg10.1 
folder as the "Local Package Directory" the result that I get is

Warning: invalid package ‘/Applications’
Error: ERROR: no packages specified

Any help would be welcome!

Cheers,  Murray
