I'm running out of disk space on the system disk (on an SGI O2) so I
want to move /usr/freeware on the system disk to /disk02/usr/freeware
(on a different hard drive).  (For example, teTeX is in /usr/freeware at
/usr/freeware/teTeX.) I copied all the files to /disk02/usr/freeware and
renamed /usr/freeware to /usr/freeware2. Then I did "ln -s
/disk02/usr/freeware /usr/freeware" to create a symbolic link so that it
would seem like all the files were still at /usr/freeware. (I didn't
move the files. I just wanted to make sure this would work first before
removing all the files from /usr/freeware.) The link was successfully
made and I could still run programs (for example, latex runs). When I
ran lyx (versiion 1.0.0, not in /usr/freeware), it ran and I was able to
open an existing file. However, when I tried to invoke the postscript
preview, I received an error that lyx could not find tex.pro.

I don't understand what is going wrong. Any ideas would be appreciated.
