Question Help with nALFS app install


I have a nALFS OS that is created using a scripting language (pretty much bare bones system), and I need to be able to install and use an Adobe application without running its installer program (because it isn't compatible with my OS). I am able to download the program and all of its files, but I can't seem to get them to work properly. Does anyone have any ideas as to where I need to go next to get this to work?

Have you tried the official support avenues for nalfs?

The installer probably has a file which does the copying of the various files to their places - you could read through it for what it does and eighter adapt it or do the copying by hand.
How is the installer incompatible with your OS?

Sorry, wrong wording

Ok, sorry, it's not that it's incompatible, but I need to be able to replicate the install through script and I have been unable to do so. I tried installing and created a div file for before and after, but going through that didn't help. I was just wondering if anyone knew of any other way that I might make it work.
