how to move Xcode to a non-system disk?


  • Subject: how to move Xcode to a non-system disk?

I have very little space on my system disk, so I tried to install Xcode (following a tip in
"About Xcode Tools.pdf") onto a non-system disk by setting up a soft link:


	ln -s /Volume/otherdisk/Developer /Developer

in an attempt to deceive the installer.

The installer was still not happy and complained about too little space, so I told it to
just install


	Developer Tools Software
	Mac OS X SDK
	Developer Example Software
	BSD SDK

reasoning that I could install the rest later. The installation duly started, but nothing
appeared in my Developer directory. On the other hand, the installer was clearly
installing stuff onto my system disk, which promptly filled up. So I interrupted the
installation.


Now I'm stuck with an incomplete (and useless) Xcode installation and a full system disk.

Is there a simple way to uninstall the XCode stuff I have installed? Where is it all?
Is there really no simple way to install the entire thing on a non-system disk?
