Danny, you should be able to execute the bin file. First make sure it is executable. A fast way to do this without going into detail about permissions is:<br><br>$chmod +x filename.bin<br><br>What you did was tell it to make the file executable. Next you should be able to run the file with a "./" dot slash
<br><br>$./filename.bin<br><br>Hope that gets you started on installing. If you want to know the current permission settings you can run a <br><br>$ls -la in the directory of where the file is. that command asks for "list long all attributes" or something similar to that.
