Loaded it to CD. Ran the install, at which point it asked if I wanted to delete the old Ubuntu, at which time I said yes. Completed the install. Updated Ubuntu 10.04. Rebooted and loaded the install script to disk, but the emc2-install.sh icon did not appear on the desktop as per the instructions. So I went to Home Folder / Downloads and proceeded with the instructions from there. Everything seemed to go as per the instructions. When it was done I rebooted and CNC > EMC2 was not to be found under the Applications pulldown menu or any other menu I tried. What did I do wrong? Did I need to reformat the drive before loading Ubuntu 10.04. If so, please instruct me on how to do it. I noticed that you can format the drive under System > Administration > Disk Utility but I am not sure what options to select. Thanks.
