Rep:
Tried it all; nothing is working. Readme (Staroffice 5.2) says I must 'mount cd-rom
with execute rights to run setup script from cd'. How do I do THIS!?!
CHAPTER 7 Starting Setup on the Network Server Login to the system as system administrator. Switch to the graphical X Windows interface if you are not already there. Switch to the installation directory on the CD, by using either a command line in a terminal window or the File Manager. This can be done by using the following command: cd /cdrom/solaris/Office52 (under Solaris) cd /cdrom/linux/Office52 (under Linux) Call the installation script with the command ./setup -net
:P
That's from the official StarOffice EnglishSetup.pdf. NUFF SAID!
