[GNC] Change Linked Document Path

[Norbert Klein]

Similar to what I wrote yesterday (but no reaction yet) - I had a new
disk - no data files on a separate partition - but as my screen-print
showed, after installation there was no program visible on the screen,
but only the small note: "Unsaved Book - GnuCash"

Any idea what went wrong? Thanks for any help.
