This is really about the worst experience I've ever had with IBM software.
Installation manager won't user install
I did a sudo install of Installation manager and it won't do anything,
doesn't have a repository configured and no apparent way to configure one.
This is really horrible.

Okay, now I'm totally screwed.
Installation Manager is gone.
Installation Manager downloaded fresh from the web won't install
RDi is gone.
Help!

Hmmm "...after installing latest Installation Manager"? Is there a real
need for the latest IM?


I agree with you, Mike, it was possibly silly of me to upgrade.
I sit at one desk with a Mac OS/X Big Sur and an Ubuntu.
I saw the noise about IM on Mac OS/X so I installed the new one there.
It worked, so I installed on Ubuntu.
Correlation is not causation: I haven't actually *proved* that it's the
IM update.
But Probably.


I would recommend using the IM that the RDI was
built and shipped with (1.8.7 IIRC)


You think just dropping back IM will do the trick?
