Problems Installing CorePlus 9.0 on a small machine

Hi Rich:

(re:  corebook.pdf:  I have it, and frequently refer to it on specific topics,
        but I haven't read it cover-to-cover.)

Your explanation of how those four directories get populated is an eye-opener.
The mechanism you've described affirms that files created during the installation
of extensions automatically persist after reboots.  Any persistence problems
which arise with extensions are with files created during run-time execution
of them.

The extraneous directory entries in my .filetool.lst are based on my now-eliminated
ignorance of this distinction just described.  In particular, my earlier post on
"How to make printer configurations persist" reflects my thrashing around not
knowing this.

I've noticed now, and failed to notice before, that the Apps descriptions of cups,
hplip, and gutenprint have statements about how "To persist across boots".

Accordingly, I know now that only the 1st 5 statements in the .filetool.lst I described
above are relevant, and they are what I'll continue with going forward.

Thanks for clearing all this up !!

Len E.

Hi Len E.
You are welcome.

It's always a good idea to read the descriptions in case there are any special instructions or hints listed.
