This error is because a module is missing, can't remember what off the top of my head.
Because its nearly finished, and nobody has got around to testing it yet, and I'm working on CES, I haven't pushed a version since sept 1st.
I will push & test yet another beta if you want, but I'd rather debug it in place for now.
My FTP settings for you no longer work...

Here's how to debug
on the line before the error, insert this:
if (!$module_list[$module]) {echo "Missing ".$module;die();}
drop all db tables and run the installer again.
It will fail telling you the missing module.
Then either download that module or remove it from profiles/cforge/cforge.info.yml

Great. It was the Address module, so got over that hump. I installed composer and added to the modules list, so thats fixed.
I did get an error next after it told me Drupal was already installed - went away when I dropped the db, overwrote the settings.php file, and stopped using hyphens in my db name (not sure which fixed it)
