• Mystic Install Directory?

    From Jeff Smith@1:282/1031 to All on Tue Dec 10 10:21:46 2019
    Hello There,

    I don't seem to remember things as I used to. That said.

    I recall that in the past the Mystic installer would not permit Mystic to be installed IF the destination directory already existed. It seemed that the installer insisted on creating the destination directory itself and would abort if the directory already existed in Linux. I had to install Mystic and THEN create the Linux user "mystic".

    My question then is there a way or an option in the Mystic installer to permit
    installation to an existing directory? I realize I could simply install to say /home/bbs/mystic but I would prefer /home/mystic if possible.

    My current install will be to a Raspberry pi3 with a second SD card mounted as /home/mystic. Hence my desire to install Mystic to the existing /mystic directory.
