Given that I have this set up... if I was going to do a clean install, I think I would have to remove it from one machine, but not install it... and then remove it from the other and do a clean install there, so that there would be a blank slate for the clean install to write into, rather than have it trying to overwrite possibly bad files.

... ?

I've managed to confuse myself with the concept of whether it matters if data is being overwritten or merged. I'm wondering if part of my problems with altoholic is that it might be getting confused by the file overwrites.

I don't *think* so... it should be that it has the most recent data all the time, no matter which machine I'm on.

I think.
