Depends on your definition of "normal". The latest batch of 3.5 upgrade
software has a few bugs in the install program - several files do not end up
getting copied to the proper directories. If you have a disk utility such as
Directory Opus, you will see these files in the root directory of the drive
that holds your Toaster software, and it will be fairly easy to move them where
they belong (inside the Toaster directory, and in the case of a couple font
files, into the Toaster/Toasterfonts drawer). One of the errant files that ends
up where it can't be found is the new Modeler.
NewTek is aware of this, and will fix the install script in the next batch to
go out, but you can easily move the 4-5 files to where they belong.
