This had been working quite well with a link. I noticed that during the update, someone created a new /usr directory: $ ls -al | grep usr drwxrwxrwx+ 16 Administrator Users 0 Oct 8 18:26 usr drwxrwxrwx+ 16 Administrator Users 0 Oct 8 18:26 usr I'm still sorting this out but thought I would pass it along as it seems a bit surprising. Windoze explorer shows the two, one as a link folder and the other as a real directory. I'm going to try to copy the new dir into the old linked dir after backing up the old. Hopefully, everything will just merge... _________________________________________________________________ Make every IM count. Download Messenger and join the i’m Initiative now.
