Hello Ken
After I posted, I looked again at the log. I then realised that it was
inadvertently misleading. The log file and associated crash was on the
other laptop, not on my 'observatory' one. The log is from my
observatory laptop and shows (or doesn't show the problems with the PS2
'crash'. It stopped on stage 3 and the message said something that I
forget - but indicated that it had effectively crashed. As soon as I
clicked 'cancel', as expected the screen went white and SGP had crashed
again.
I had expected to do the whole session on 'supernova' but had major
problems with PHD2 after a target change, and then its guiding failed
completely.
I have two operational laptops that I am hoping to configure identically
in case I have to swap following a crash.
I am going to work on a revised plan next time: PHD2 has to be guiding
on different targets before I can resume incorporating it within the SGP.
I apologise again for a semi-accurate summary.
