[nflug] feisty, indeed

[Robert Meyer]

Hmmm... Ubiquity, huh...  I think that Engineering Computing Services at UB grabbed that name first.  Maybe they could sue for trademark infringement and make a pile 'o cash... :-)  Or not.

Cheers!

ok,

I probably should have learned that ubiquity was the installer program 
before asking that, but I keep thinking "anaconda" after so many 
rehat-type installs. never actually saw ubiquity named before. after 
watching the damn thing fail TOO many times, I felt like I was trapped 
in a philip k dick novel. ;-)

anyway,

sudo ubiquity --no-migration-assistant

seems to have done the trick.
Just posting here now for the record, and in case I forget hyphens or 
something next time.

oops,
S.
