Fully remove 6i evaluation from linux before installing full version.

[John Borders]

The RPM de-installation routine (on Redhat 7.1) stopped running before the program was completely removed. It now says the program is not found even though I've still got some directories on the drive. Will the full version install over the top of the old stuff? If not, which directories/files do I need to remove to ensure success? Thanks!

I'm not sure why RPM would fail to uninstall packets, but it shouldn't be too hard to work around. When you install LabVIEW again, use the --force command with RPM. This will force it to overwrite all the files. There are a couple of oddball problems with install scripts in RedHat 7.1, so you might want to just follow the instructions and use RPM to install things manually using the --force parameter.

Thanks, I'll give it a shot!
