Thumbs down Uninstalling Real Player 10 (Suse 10)


Hi all,

I am using SuSe 10.0. I installed RealPlayer10 thru the
.bin file so uninstalling via rpm is not possible.

Is there any uninstall script available which removes
executables / plugins / fonts etc.

There is a install.log created the /usr/local/RealPlayer
directory(where I installed) - if no uninstall script is
available I think I will have go thru this file and
rm all links and files created there. Will this
approach work for removing the plugins.

Another problem is : how do I move the /usr directory
to a new disk(mounted as /data1) since my root partition
is getting filled up.
I tried symbolic links /usr-> /data1/usr
but this creates all sorts of problems (during boot,
man page viewing etc). Is it possible to mount the root
partition and then /data1 immediately after that
during boot so that all executables/libraries
are immediately available.

Thanks,
jaijeet

Realplayer: check the install log for the install log and delete the files manually. moving /usr to a new disk: copy /usr to the new disk and change the entries in /etc/fstab on a recovery console. After the next reboot it should work.
