it seems it uninstall `node` when install itself.

It just overwrites the node symlink.

> "This package will install io.js v1.0.0 and npm v2.1.18 into /usr/local/. The binary /usr/local/bin/iojs will also be symlinked as /usr/local/bin/node."

  • The windows install for this took the liberty of removing my original nodejs install, removed the binary and batch files from the program files\nodejs directory, even though I opted to install iojs to its own folder. Nodejs shortcuts are removed from start menu, and path variables were removed as well.

    Go to reinstall nodejs, and that install says a later version is already installed and cancels the install without giving me an option to install anyway.
