OK, I think we're getting somewhere now.

Sean?

On Feb 8th you edited the Page Attachments Installation page on the  
wiki (http://wiki.radiantcms.org/Installing_Extension_- 
_Page_Attachments) and changed the subversion URL to http://dev.radiantcms.org/svn/radiant/trunk/extensions/page_attachments 
  . But that version of page_attachments doesn't have the  
svn:externals property set in the lib dir so it doesn't pull down the  
technoweenie code.

Now I've installed page_attachments from the old svn url, radiant  
seems to run the migration properly.

I haven't investigated the shards extension yet, but I'll install it  
if it seems to need it. Same goes for using a different version of  
radiant itself.

Thanks again for your time
