Hi Giuseppe_Chillemi,

I believe what Scott(0) posted is what you need, but I'm still a little confused.  Can you provide a picture or screenshot of what you are seeing at this point:

What is SD1 -- the hard drive on the computer that you installed to?

As far as I know, the installer doesn't point to any "source" -- it just points itself at a "destination" for the install.



This may not have anything to do with what you are talking about above, but I installed LL2.0 to three different computers over the last few days.  On two of them I used the same live USB with persistence enabled (made from UNetBootin) and noticed something that I don't recall ever seeing before.  When I installed to the second computer, the installer automatically filled in some things it "remembered" from the first computer I installed to.  For example, the first computer was a Dell mini and the second was an HP laptop.  When I installed to the HP, the installer pre-filled the hostname as that of the Dell I had installed to before.  I caught and changed it, but that surprised me.  Maybe something similar is what is happening to you Giuseppe.
