Hi
can someone please explain to me how to install a software application in linux?
i have a cd with asterix on it. i am reasonably sure that i would be able to install it once i have it on the harddrive(i attended an asterix course recently) but currently the asterix software is zipped and on a cd.
can anyone tell me how i move the program from the cd to a directory called usr/src and unzip it? unfortuanately the course included the bare minimum amount of linux and i simply dont know how to access the cd drive.
linux doesnt apear to have any drive names as in windows. and even once i have the cd drive how do i specify the hard drive?
