Derek,
Subject #2
1. Log in as root
2. Navigate to www.real.com and download the Unix .bin version of
Realplayer8
3. After downloading it, open a console and type in: chmod 777
rp8_xxx_xxx_cs1.bin
Press the [enter] key
4. Type in: ./rp8_xxx_xxx_cs1.bin
Press the [enter] key
5. I usually let it install to /usr/local/Realplayer8
The .bin version will not ask you for a CD. They also include additional
icons etc..
