Hi,
It depends which file you got. If it's an rpm just rpm -i filename. If you have source, it's harder, so better get a binary file. Or maybe download the net installer. Just unpack the file (tar zxvvf filename) and run an executable you'll get (from X). And you have nice installation program that will donload all neccessary components...

And uninstall... If it's an rpm just rpm -e packagename. But with other versions... Just install it in separate directory. To uninstall delete it.

if its a tar.gz download, after unpacking it, there should be a README and INSTALL file that explains everything you will need to install Mozilla.
