Open up a shell prompt.
Type this in
wget http://www.graalonline.com/graal2001...raalinstall.sh

then

chmod +x graalinstall.sh
then

./graalinstall.sh

Then follow the instructions ^^

Must you be so condescending with almost every post?

That's subjective, I don't see how I'm being condescending by stating my opinion. Linux just isn't a good OS for the average computer user, especially since it isn't really meant for gaming.

Ack. You have to CHMOD things in Linux? x.X Anyway, peraps I'd like Linux if I had enough space to partition my drive and tinker with it more. ::has a copy of Mandrake sitting around somewhere...::

Yeah there are many cases where you must CHMOD...unless you are root of course...but running linux as root is risky.

Even as root you must have a file chmodded as executable in order to run it... you would not want to accidentally run text files or the like :)

I think you can just do 'sh graalinstall.sh'
But normally you can just download the file, then click on it in the file browser.

@Jagen: :grrr: Linux is much easier to install than Windows, there are programs like Mozilla, OpenOffice and gimp, and it's much more secure.

And, you're making the flawed assumption that the average computer user has gaming as a main, or even high, priority.
