Hi Martin,
In what directory or file system should the guilg00.gz ( I downloaded
it in a
whole unit ) resite.
Last time I got the Demo version in Win95 file system ( downloaded by
Netscape
through Getright ). After finished downloading I boot to Linux and mount the
vfat file
system to access the file. From there I extracted the file and run the Runme
command,
it compliants that a file is missing. So the installation was failed.
A detailed setup procedure is most appreciated. Thanks in advance.
