Ditto here for the GA 1.2, but there was already
everything else in place on the drive: 2 boot
partitions of W2K, eCS 1.1, and DOS on C:, plus
various app.s and data partitions.

Not an option here, Ray. We're talking about the
Shuttle box, which only has room for one HDD.
Removing it is really a PITA, too. If I can't finesse
this or future installs of eCS on this box, then the
refreshed or later versions are worth nothing to me as
far as the Shuttle goes, and I'll just keep on using
the versions that are on there now. (They work
reasonably well.) It would be disappointing, but not
a disaster. And if Serenity can't get the installer
to where it can cope with circumstances like this,
which aren't really all that exotic these days, then
I'm afraid their product deserves to languish in
obscurity. Harsh words, but that's the truth.
