How do I install NB 6.5 to alt location on HP-UX?

[Rottweiler]

Hello all, I'm trying to install NB 6.5 onto a Unix HP-UX box. After I run the install, it keeps telling me that it needs more space in the /usr/openv directory. When I answer 'n' to the prompt and put in the path where I want it to go, according to the NB Unix installation manual, it just ends the installation. Can anyone tell me how I can switch where I'd like for the files to be installed so that a link can be made to the /usr/openv directory? The manual is USELESS!!

Many admins make /usr/openv a mount point so that it can be in its own filesystem.

I'm not very versed in Unix. This project was rammed down my throat by my supervisor who wants me to 'figure it out' I'm getting frustrated because the NB Manual doesn't tell me much on doing this.

I've managed to do this fine on Solaris.

Any chance you could cut n paste, the menu and what you are entering, including when it aborts?

perhaps there is already a link for /usr/openv that exists. If so then remove it and allow the install to create it for you.

I've done the installation, but only after blowing away the old NB version. It then allows me to choose where I wish to put the installation.
