Then after lot of hair pulling I came to know about
these .gz files. I downloaded
firefox-1.0.4.installer.tar.gz and followed the
instructions and to my misbelief There was a FireFox
installation Wizard window (no shelling), And today I
am using Firefox1.04 on linux. So try to find if any
.gz installations files on net.
man tar
man gzip
Understand what .tar.gz files (popularly called tarballs) are. The
solution here was not the tarball..it was the firefox installer. Do you
know that even the kernel source is available as a tarball? And if you'd
done a bit of STFW, we would saved a lot of bandwidth.
RTFM.
