I did not use option /a. I simply used: tar xvzf Ooo_2.0.2_LinuxIntel_install_wJRE.tar.gz then cd into the RPMS directory, /OOB680_m5_native_packed-1_en-US.9011/RPMS and executed rpm -Uvh *rpm which should have given me the standard installation in /opt I then cd'ed into the desktop-integration directory and executed rpm -Uvh openoffice.org-mandriva-menus-2.0.2-3noarch.rpm ------------------------------- According to the installation manual (which sucks in .pdf because I can't cut and paste :)) that should add 2.0.2 to my menus. Is it because I did not remove 2.0 first because the commands are the same? I think I'll attempt to remove the whole lot and start over with just 2.0.2. Are there any pitfalls there with preferences or hidden files lurking around to be missed on the uninstall?
