maybe the problem is something different, pardus 2008 is close to release; i'll possibly wait for it, if i cannot install to it either, i will change my distro. (possibly ubuntu which i previously used)
by the way, you're right, the one i use is pardus.org.tr . thanks for the information, i've already checked those information; i need to debug air installer to get better information(why it cancels), currently it seems impossible... tomorrow, I'll make a presentation @ my universite (www.metu.edu.tr) about Offline Web Applications , mostly AIR, i was pretty excited to do presentation on my Linux, maybe next time... thnks.
