Yeah, when I read Torsten's message, I figured my assumption that it was
okay to open the Package Loader in the candidate image was perhaps not a
good assumption after all. (Opening the Package Loader apparently sets
this downloadDirectoryName preference.)
So, I will reset this preference... hopefully that will be sufficient.
Alternatively, I could try creating the full image again and see if I
could load the Upgrade-to-Full package via a command, and not open the
Package Loader at all. Something like "SMSqueakMap default
installPackageWithId: '97aadf92-12b0-etc' ".
Either way, I will replace the full gamma image later today.
