Ask away: http://ask.fedoraproject.org Firefox now installs in a default directory that the install script chooses for you. alternatively, you can specify a different directory when running the script; it will prompt you. The install dir fully contains firefox - it is essentially sandboxed in that directory, except for the home .mozilla directory. I've never had any trouble installing this way, and on Gentoo that's a savings of a few hours compile time. :) Terry
