I’ve run into a problem with my Onyx2, as it doesn’t have the required space on the system disk to install the Onyx2 demos.

It’s absolutely ridiculous that the company who originally bought this machine only installed two x 2GB disks in it. 8(

I don’t have any spare disks here and the software installer won’t allow me to install the demo files on the secondary disk.

There’s not enough space on the secondary to install all the demos at once, but I can install an uninstall the demo disks one at a time to run the demos until I acquire a larger system disk.

Can this be done?

Any time I have to deal with issues like this, I usually just end up making creative use of ln. I.e. you might try making a symbolic link for the directory it wants to install them to and point that to a location on the other drive.

Thanks, I’ll give it a try.

Thanks, it worked!

I got it to work by copying the demos folder to the secondary drive and creating a reference to it there, which I then placed in the: /usr folder on the primary drive.
