@artemis@vulpine.club @owashii@plush.city ...to be fair I woulda done that too?

@g1comics If it IS a known issue, I can't bloody find it . x-x; searching the error codes just say "well DUH you need to set the installation to a drive that ISN'T full, IDIOT!" basically. x_x; which,. yeah, i did. but libreoffice decided it knew best.

goddamn. this is frustrating. I just want something better than MSWord that isn't Google Docs. fffuck.

@g1comics Okay, I tried it out, and it seemed to work. It let me install to the drive I wanted and a directory, and actually started installing, and then...

...it brought up an error right before it started installing, saying drive E: was an invalid drive... I wasn't trying to install to drive E, i was trying to install to drive G. it even checked Drive G for space. but when it comes to installing, it ignores it, and tries to install to whatever drive IT feels like doing. fuckin' god wtf.

@g1comics I'll give this a shot. the LIbreOffice help guides are functionally useless. Nobody seems to answer questions, nobody else seems to be having this precise problem, or the search function pays no attention to what I ask it and brings up utterly unrelated crap.

Hopefully the INSTALLLOCATION thing works, but the wiki doesn't tell me how to use that option, like, do I put a = after it and then what format does the path need to be in??

SO THEN I got the bright idea of disabling the DVD Drive. It can't try and install to a drive that the system thinks doesn't exist right?

...nope
LibreOffice still gives it a shot, and now won't even let me change directory. like why the fuck are you trying to install there, and why the fuck won't you let me change drive. fuckssake.

okay. this is ridiculous.

Wanting to try out LibreOffice for work, instead of MS Office, but EVERY SINGLE TIME we try to install it, it defaults to trying to install to the DVD Drive, E: .

We try to tell it to change drive, it throws up an error saying "Not enough space on Drive E!" like, YEAH, IT'S A DVD DRIVE, WITH NO DISC IN IT, OF COURSE THERE ISN'T, LET ME CHANGE INSTALL DRIVE. but no, it immediately closes the installer as if I'd told it to cancel. which is bullshit.
