install script does rm -rf /usr for ubuntu

[ginoputrino]

An extra space at line 351:
rm -rf /usr /lib/nvidia-current/xorg/xorg

causes the install.sh script to do an rm -rf on the /usr directory for people installing in ubuntu.

Totally uncool dude!!! The script deletes everything under /usr. I just had to reinstall linux on my pc to recover.

Removing the space will fix this. Probably should do it quickly!!!

Ya this happened to me. I wasn't sure what went wrong, but chaos ensued shortly after I ran the install script. I have to work tommorow, and require my computer, so this could be a late night reinstalling/recovering my personal files. Oh well, I guess that is what I get for alpha testing ;D

GIANT BUG... causing /usr to be deleted... so sorry....

[goncalossilva]

This made me laugh :)

[MrMEEE]

Yeah... I was very tired that night...

[ginoputrino]

Guess it's ok to laugh about it now :-) Btw props to MrMEEE - this driver has totally saved me from having to do cad in windows. Legendary piece of work! I don't even mind that it wiped my machine the first time I tried it :-)

Wow - just read the commit thread on github. Took me longer than it did to reinstall my machine. Epic. Had no idea that was going on.

It took me longer to load the pictures in that commit than to reinstall my machine.

LOL, i am on the process of recovering my own files. Fortunately, it's just a test machine. I'd love to see if some one deployed the script on an working server

So interesting a bug

[Serkan-devel]

Just place the space before usr.

Example:# rm -rf / usr/...

It anyway doesn't come with any warranty so..
