Having trouble installing unetbootin...
Hello:
Sorry for this... I can't seen to come up with the correct command to install my downloaded unetbootin-linux-549 file. I have tried: 'install', './' and 'sh'. I also tried 'double-clicking' it. Somehow, I was able to install it on my Slackware Laptop some time ago. Now I am trying to install it on my 64-bit desktop running Slackware 13.37. Any help would be appreciated. |
unetbootin is a 32bit app, so you need to go multilib first (if you haven't already) to run it under 64bit.
after I think this should do: from a normal user terminal window (under X) Code:
$ xhost +localhost Code:
# file unetbootin-linux-549 it's worth to mention that there are also tools to run directly applications as root that use polkit, like kdesu under kde or (the one I'm using) gksu-polkit (needs vala and libgee). EDIT: sorry for the question, just curiosity: what do you use unetbootin for? |

I think that 'going multilib' is way over my head. I read Alien Bob's "multilib packages & build instructions" page and there is just too much stuff that I don't understand or know about - maybe later. Thanks again for your time. Marking as 'SOLVED'. |
Although the problem is solved, perhaps there is somebody here who is still interested in it: I made a slackware 13.1 package for unetbootin that is to find here:
