This message appears if tlpm cannot successfully install files of TeX
Live. Are you copied ALL files from cd image into
D:\data\software\texlive\20060108?

For tests get fresh edition of installer from:
ftp://ftp.gust.org.pl/pub/Projekty/tlpmgui/20070108-setuptl.zip

After start press F9, take a screenshot and send to me or to list:
tlpmgui at gust.org.pl
In your temp directory you can find several files tlpm*.* - copy
it to other folder. Before accept install GS get files again.

Please enclose your environment variables.

Path to other TeX is there in %Path% environment variable?
