Q doesn't allow dots in PC names, but Minix from FreeOSZoo comes with two

[kju]

When downloading Minix from FreeOSZoo through Q, you can't save the PC's configuration as it configured by default. (It still boots fine, however).

Steps to reproduce:

1. Guest PC -> Download new Guest PC from free.oszoo.org
2. Select Minix 3.1.1.
3. Click Download.
4. Press Cmd-E to edit the Minix 3.1.1 guest machine.
5. Click "Update PC"

Results: The "Name" field is filled with the red text "Name with illegal characters (:./)". This occurs without making any changes to the PC configuration, and it can be confusing why the dialog doesn't close when clicking "Update PC" if you are on another tab because the error won't be visible.

Expected results:

• Either Minix from FreeOSZoo shouldn't come with dots in the name, or Q should handle them.
• Also, the "Name with illegal characters" error should be more prominent (popup?). It is invisible if you are on another tab.

By the way, great work on Q -- besides a few minor bugs, it works the best of all the other free emulators I've tried on OS X.

I think we will fix that in the release I'm working on now (post 0.9.0). The illegal chars are because the guest name must correspond with the filename.

Illegal chars will be replaced by "_" in the filename in the future.
