View 14 Replies View RelatedI am using linux for the first time. My linux distribution is RedHat 5.4 on a VMWare. On this machine, I went online and downloaded mozilla firefox.
The file I received is firefox-3.6.12.tar.bz2. I have tutorials on how to install from the rpm and yum commands, but these do not help when installing a .tar.bz2 file. Please explain how I can install this file.
I have installed CentOS 5.5 and I downloaded squid and dansguardian in tar.gz format. how do I install it? I'm only familiar in rpm file.

I did the following:
created an empty .img file with dd
associated it to /dev/loop0 with losetup
created a partition in it with fdisk
formatted such partition with mke2fs
copied a custom GNU/Linux system into that partition
Now I'd like to make the .img file bootable by installing grub into its MBR and /boot directory. My goal is to load the .img file with qemu. It would be better if grub2 is used instead of grub legacy.
I have stood it for a long time. Have anyone changed it successfully ? Please tell me and all the friends viewed this thread.I often download login window theme package from http://art.gnome.org/themes/gdm_greeter , the file type is .tar.bz2 , but I don't know how to install it.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI downloaded three iso-images, 1 dvd-image and 2 cd-images:
openSUSE-11.3-DVD-i586.iso
openSUSE-11.3-GNOME-LiveCD-i686.iso
openSUSE-11.3-KDE4-LiveCD-i686.iso
Being paranoid, I created iso-files from the burnt DVD-R and the two burnt CD-R to verify integrity.
The iso-file of the DVD-R was identical to the downloaded image. Both iso-files created from the CD-R were different in size.
The original size of openSUSE-11.3-KDE4-LiveCD-i686.iso is 719.323.136 Bytes.
I only got 718.938.112 Bytes when recreating an ISO-file from my CD-R.
The CD-R is from Sony. When the length of my ISO-file doesn't correspond to the downloaded one, the checksum file verification doesn't work.

View 9 Replies View RelatedI am really trying to learn the heart of linux, and not rely on gui's and package managers for everything. I am trying to download firefox 3.6. I downloaded the arc file, and extracted it to my home folder, but I don't know what to do next. I am also clueless as to how to install tar or tar.gz files, and tell them where to go, etc. Firefox is the priority question here. I am sure I can get it from the package manager, but I want to learn to do it with the arc files, and tar files, etc, and not rely on the gui for everything like in Windows. I am a Linux newbie, converting to Linux for hobby and educational purposes, but I have no direction, or no sense of where to go, or how to learn. I am running Kubuntu 10.04 LTS.

View 7 Replies View RelatedI am having a problem installing a game that is a .bin file.
