A common problem with the install script is that the original Linux will boot instead of real time Linux. This was fixed by going into grub and telling grub to boot the new real time linux. I thought this was fixed in recent releases and besides the CNC stuff would still show up(?). It seems you booted from the original partition, without EMC2 on it. You might just wipe the drive clean with maybe a dd terminal command that escapes me right now. This should wipe any traces of any partitions on the hard drive. Then boot from the live CD and do a live CD install. By the way, the dd method could forever wipe anything you might have wanted to keep that was on the drive. -- Kirk Wallace http://www.wallacecompany.com/machine_shop/ http://www.wallacecompany.com/E45/index.html California, USA ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Lotusphere 2011 Register now for Lotusphere 2011 and learn how to connect the dots, take your collaborative environment to the next level, and enter the era of Social Business. http://p.sf.net/sfu/lotusphere-d2d _______________________________________________ Emc-users mailing list Emc-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-users
