Re: instalation path

already done.... response:

    bmike1@1[install_flash_player_9_linux]$ which mozilla
    /usr/bin/mozilla
    bmike1@1[install_flash_player_9_linux]$

but in the flash instalation script it tells me:

    Please enter the installation path of the Mozilla, SeaMonkey,
    or Firefox browser (i.e., /usr/lib/mozilla): /usr/lib/mozilla
    dir= /usr/lib/mozilla

    WARNING: Please enter a valid installation path.

here is what I did leading up to the failure message:

and everything worked after I did..... thanks for your help!

bmike1@1[~]$ cd '/home/bmike1/Desktop/install_flash_player_9_linux'
bmike1@1[install_flash_player_9_linux]$ sudo ./flashplayer-installer
