Multiple Eclipse Installations and Eclipse RC3

I was sure i blogged this but a search says different. Anyway Javalobby has a detailed thread on how to Managing Multiple Eclipse Installations.

The reason i bring this up is that after my upgrade to Eclipse RC3 yesterday Eclipse had trouble seeing my pluggins. To get this to work i had to remove site.xml from my main default Eclipse folder so the only file it had in there was the .eclipseextension. After that all seemed fine.

So far the upgrade seems to be working fine with obvious changes to the icon, splash screen and new loader progress bar at the start.

You were able to set the workspace up as described? Ever since I've switched to the "distributed" install format via this article, I can't open/create a new file in the File Explorer. I know it's a dumb config issue, but can't spot where it is. My workspace is on a network drive via Samba.

Do you mean the Navigator view? if so thats working fine for me. Mind you my workspace is local. If you mean file Explorer i never use it really. Though i did just try it and all seemed fine though all i could do from there is open files.
