RE: installation question

You can look inside the file and see, but my impression is that you could run it at any time. I will step out on a limb (since it is a gui and you can't see) that it is the last (or nearly) thing done during the install.

It is just telling you to do it before it the install can be considered finished.

Anyone else can second,

Subject: installation question

All;

I've been installing release 92080 on quite a few machines lately and have managed to do something unexpected on two of them. I've not noticed any issues after my *error*, but I'm wondering if anyone knows if there could be a problem that I just haven't seen, yet.

At the end of the installation, a window pops up with a message about needing to leave this window open and go run root.sh from another window. This is all well and good, but twice now I've been working in another window when this message pops up. If I happen to be typing too fast in my other window, the message pops up, the focus is transferred to the installation window before my brain catches up and I've managed to hit return <in my installation window> before the root script has been run. Does anyone know what impact this has on the installation?

Any comments are welcome.
