(I haven't used Daisy very much... but...)

There was a bug in the master version of the SDK installer that was displaying 
special characters to the screen in some instances.  It caused what appeared to 
be a lockup on my screen for a while, but it was actually just taking a very 
long time to complete the operation, then a 'return' would allow the prompt to 
come back.

This was recently fixed by a commit from Richard 
2d1660112e54653f7bb763939d0416472c49fe01

If you can, cherry-pick that commit from master into your Daisy branch and try 
again.  If this works, we should get that submitted to Daisy.
