Thanks Ryan. I will try that for the unistall.

However, it is still puzzling me why I have a different result on the two macs. 
OK, they have a slightly different OS (10.7.5 the one that works, 10.8.2 the 
one that does not) but would that be the case? I have used the same list of 
commands to do the installation... why do you think uninstalling root should 
not be necessary?

Cheers,

Fab
