Krys, Matt -- Since 1.7.2 is meant to work with the development version of R, using 1.7.2 implies that you really want to first move on to the 'bleeding edge' by installing the development version of R (visit your local CRAN, e.g., http://cran.fhcrc.org, then 'R binaries', then platform, then look around a little (e.g., for Windows, click on 'base' and then 'r-devel snapshot build'). beadarray 1.7.2 is available via SVN, but also (typically 24-48 hours after a patch) via biocLite -- biocLite retrieves the correct version of the package for your version of R. On Windows and Mac this saves you from having to install development tools. You'll run into much less grief (and avoid the dreaded email exchange 'what is your sessionInfo()?' followed several hours later by 'update your packages') by using only packages meant to work together with the appropriate version of R.
