Unfortunately, it still doesn't work.  And, this time (after removed
the ~/.texlive2009 directory, the texmf-config/web2c/updmap.cfg had
not been created, so I can only send you the system copy of the file
at /usr/local/texlive/2009/texmf-config/web2c/updmap.cfg. Please check
the attachment.

I am wondering, is there a command line that can check the
integration/health of my TL'2009 installation?  I remembered, when I
install the TL'2009, it was broke a time because the network problem,
and I then run the same command to resume the process. Is that a
problem?  And, you know, TL'2009 is very big, so it is very normal
that a network connection can be broke during the installation.
