Default Removing old installation

Hi,

At least on a troublesome SLES9 installation, install.sh -u dont remove everything.

I did this:
/etc/init.d/zimbra stop
install.sh -u
killall running processes owned by "zimbra"
cd /etc
grep -r zimbra *
Remove everything that contains zimbra(init script, entrys in passwd files, group files etc)
rm -rf /opt/zimbra
rm -rf /var/log/zimbra*
locate zimbra
remove any found files
(should be clean by now)
restart syslogd,crond
lsof|grep zimbra (should be clean by now)
last two steps can be solwed by reboot aswell

After this it should be clean and ready for "fresh" install. I had to do this beacuse some other errors. But this should atleast remove everything.

/Daniel
