Subject:	SCOUG-Help: eCS 2.0 Installed Successfully

Content Type: text/plain

I had no problems with the installation once I provided a valid
registration key. The new O.S. shows up as an option in Boot Manager,
with eCS 1.2 still the default.

I do notice that as eCS 1.2 boots, the text is almost half a character
off the screen to the left. It's still readable, but not quite
correctly aligned. I think this is something to do with SNAP, and
changing my screen resolution. (In fact, looking at things on eCS 1.2,
where I have the screen set to 1280 x 1024, I think I chose 1280 x 960
by mistake on eCS 2.0.)

However, the resulting system knows nothing about what I've set up over
the past several years. There's no NTFS, no SeaMonkey, no OpenOffice
2.4, etc., etc. So I was thinking, maybe I should copy the eCS 1.2
system to the new bootable volume, and try a migration-type install. If
I made the new volume JFS, can I do that? And can I make eCS 1.2 copy
itself in its entirety to this new drive G:? Or do I maybe need to
install yet another eCS 2.0 to let me manipulate my C: and G: drives data?

Suggestions appreciated,
Colin
