installpkg cmd not found
 
What?! I thought "installpkg", "removepkg", etc. were built into slackware. Why am I getting command not found when trying to install aterm?

Code:
casey@Slacker:~$ dir
Desktop                aterm-0.4.2-i386-1pyk.tgz  windowborder-themes  wallpaper
casey@Slacker:~$ installpkg aterm-0.4.2-i386-1pyk.tgz
bash: installpkg: command not found
casey@Slacker:~$
Am I doing something wrong?

try to be root :)

like :
su
(enter your pass)
installpkg your_package.tgz

I think this is a path problem :)

Sorry, my fault I wasted a thread.

I've been up for about 36hrs..... I forgot all about "su".

work perfectly.
