At least the above users provided insight on the install.

Lol, ok, you clearly have no understanding of what I'm asking. Next time, don't give off an elitist attitude, or I'll call you out on it again.

So you admit your elitist, arrogant attitude? Glad we got that cleared up. Or is that common knowledge?

And given how you still couldn't answer a basic question, I guess I'd attribute that to your bad reading comprehension.
