[Qgis-user] qgis crashes when opening a GRASS raster and vector maps

[Kurt Springs]

Hi folks,

I am running Qgis under OS X 10.5.5.

I have been using the plug-ins to import the GRASS raster and vector  
maps.  Each time I try to import the map, qgis quits with no warning  
and no message that it has unexpectedly quit.  I was hoping someone  
could tell me why and how to fix it.  I am running 1.0.0 preview, but  
it has been happening on the last couple of versions as well.

I don't know if this means anything but I get a pop-up that says "QGIS  
couldn't find your GRASS installation.  Would you like to specify path  
(GISBASE) to your GRASS installation.  I have tried several things but  
none of them seem to satisfy this message.  Could someone tell me what  
I should be aiming for to specify the path?

Thanks in advance for your help.
