2. is it normal that i dont have the local/bin directory in /usr?

3.i changed the profile file just like in the tutorial. with an editor (windows).
after that, when i type root or sudo gainroot in xterm i get an error?

can someone give me the files ready so i just need to copy them?

thx in advance

Re 2 - create a new directory. Have a look about as to how to do this in Linux OR use a file explorer, like Filebox.

Re 1 - Make a directory called "java" in /home/opt then copy compressed file to /home/opt/java and de-compress it there; de-compressing in a FAT file system (like MyDocs) removes all the necessary Linux flags so don't de-compress until it's in the Linux partition.

Re 3 - have you got rootsh installed? I "think" the version in devel is better than the one in extras.
