Hi,

1. Download latest flash player for Linux:

http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/flash/english/linux/6.0r79/install_flash_player_6_linux.tar.gz

2. Unpack it on to your system in a place of your choosing.

3. Navigate on the command line into the packages
   'install_flash_player_6_linux' directory.

4. Do: su command then enter password yada yada to get root access.

5. Do: ./flashplayer-install

6. Watch the prompts and hit <ENTER> until it asks you for the mozilla
   path and enter: /usr/lib/mozilla-1.2.1 then hit <ENTER>.

7. It will ask you to proceed with install - Answer: y.

8. It will next ask if you want to do another install - Answer: n

After hitting return you should be back at the command prompt and flash
will be available the next time you start Mozilla. It can be easily
verified by Doing 'Help->About Plug-ins' from within Mozilla.

Flash works nicely here on my RH 9 installs.

Regards

Phil
