new Red Hat 9 - I put nikon 6 cd. Can I install programs from CD?


I installed Red Hat 9 wiping the illegal xP I found in the second-hand IBM PC I bought. This Red Hat 9 has mozilla.
Can I instal this Nikonview 6 and programs from CD ?

The CD icon on the monitor screen opens and shows contents.

If I am thinking right Nikonview is a Windows/Mac app and will not run on Linux. It may run under the wine, a windows emulator application that runs on Linux.

I usually use a USB card reader for this. You can buy a 4 in 1 kind but some distro do not have the feature needed for these devices in the kernel. Redaht is one of them. It is called multilun support. For a guarantee working one get one that is just for the media card you are using. Redhat 9 I think had the feature to automatically see USB devices but that was with old 2.4 kernels and other. If you are not really set on Redhat 9 I would upgrade to a newer version of the redhat clone called Fedora Core. Go with version 4. Version 5 is out but for a beginner has some bugs to work out. Or try Suse or Mandriva or if you have the room try them all.
