I'd suggest that telling the OP (me) to do such a thing - after
installing the system using the 11.1 installer - would be folly. If the
installer had wanted me to do this it would have told me so. Remember,
I'm an average user who just want a system that works, and I prefer not
to downgrade to the commandline unless I have to.
