My problem occurred restricted to one machine, before I came home and synced my home directory, so I don't think the mirroring was actually relevant (except that it might mean that whatever went wrong on the first machine got mirrored to the second). Here's another theory: I believe I was actually use GAP, via the sage notebook, while I installed the small group database. Could this have caused the problem? Or maybe I had some junk left in my home directory from some old version of sage, and that junk caused trouble? I hadn't upgraded in a while.
