How do I get the altest version of Firefox for Linux when I'm not on a Linux machine?


HI,

I'm on a Mac but want to install Firefox for my Linux with the following uname -a info ...

Code:
[davea@mydevbox mydir]$ uname -a
Linux mydevbox.mydomain.com 7.3.8-25.26.amzn1.x86_64 #1 SMP Wed Mar 16 17:15:34 UTC 2016 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
This is a machine I can only access through a termianl but I don't have a GUI for. So I try and download Firefox on my Mac, but visiting their download page -- https://www.mozilla.org/firefox/new/ , only leads me to a download for my Mac. How do I get the latest version of Firefox for my machine?

Click on "Download a fresh copy" below the "Refresh Firefox" button.

Hi,

For U.S. En then; https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all/?q=US%20En

Select for your system & arch to download.

EDIT: Moving between machines can be done in several ways via LAN, sneaker net or removable media.

Hope this helps.
Have fun & enjoy!
