My hopes were high. > Did I do something wrong? > Thanks, Based on what you have in your reply, it looks like that line got broken along the line between the curl -O and the rest of it. Did it say something like this? "dbdev2:~ johnson$ curl -O curl: no URL specified! curl: try 'curl --help' or 'curl --manual' for more information dbdev2:~ johnson$ http://releases.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/camino/releases/Camino-1.0.6.dmg " If so that's the issue. All of that stuff: curl -O http:... needs to be on a single line. It will wrap as you're typing it, unless the terminal window is stretched, but that is ok. If you type it out by hand, that -O is a capital letter O, not a zero. Also, on second thought, as ancient as it is, IE has GOT to be able to manage this URL: <http://releases.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/camino/releases/Camino-1.0.6.dmg > here's the same link tinyurl-ized: <http://tinyurl.com/4jmjre> -- Bruce Johnson University of Arizona College of Pharmacy Information Technology Group Institutions do not have opinions, merely customs --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to Low End Mac's iMac List, a group for those using G3, G4, G5, and Intel Core iMacs as well as Apple eMacs.
