Hi everyone:
If somebody can answer my question I'll be happy.The last couple of
days I've been trying to install Netscape 6.1 (my OS is Linux Mandrake
7.2)I do what the README files tell me but I don't get a response from my
system.Maybe netscape should post a HOWTO install with Linux.I need the
instructions for installing it ,beacause I'm trying to not give up.But my
patience is running up.Maybe someone could help me.Please e-mail me or post
it here.

THANX 4 your help :(

There is no Netscape 6.1! There's Netscape 6.01, and the installation
instructions exists at the download site. You didn't look hard enough.
Look under "How to Install Software".
Download the necessary stuff, then issue the following command in root.
gzip -dc filename | tar -xvf -
Then cd into that the newly uncompressed directory and issue the following
command.
./netscape-installer
The dot & slash, "./", means "that which is in this directory".
Netscape 6.01 sucks. Stay with Netscape 4.7x. Trust me!
