I want to install planeshift.
In the downloads section there are files entitled PlaneShift_CBV0.3.010-1.x86.run.
How do I install a .run file?
And will these binarys run on my amd64 box? |

You have posted 500+ time and you don't know what to do with a .bin file?!?!
ok what you do it go ./path/to/file.bin and then it should open up a gui installer.
if you have any problems post here
and about the amd64 problem I can't help you there cause I only have a 32 bit system here but I think if you have setup your gentoo install corectly it should be fine.
p.s sorry for the spelling ![Embarassed :oops:](images/smiles/icon_redface.gif) |

Ironically enough, you just run .run files
Change to the directory where you stored the file.
Make sure the executable bit is set (chmod u+x PlaneShift_CBV0.3.010-1.x86.run)
Then just run it
Code: |
./PlaneShift_CBV0.3.010-1.x86.run
|
As to the 64 bit, I have no idea
Edit: Beaten, just. Oh well, close ![Smile :)](images/smiles/icon_smile.gif) |

Well..... oddly enough gentoo has never forced me to use one of these files. Not sure why... might be portage. |

Planeshift is in portage, so just emerge it. (I'm in the middle of doing so myself.) |
