Linux

It says command not found.

OK, there could be 1 of 2 problems...
1. Your system doesn't have the tar program
2. Tar doesn't appear in PATH or PATH not setup correctly

Login to a shell session as root, type whereis tar
if tar isn't found it will return something like 'tar: '
if tar is found you should see something like 'tar: /bin/tar '

If tar is found then go back to your directory containing the flash installer tar file, and type
/path/to/tar -xvf install_flash_player_7_linux.tar-1
obviously replacing the /path/to/tar with the output from the whereis tar command.

It's found

/path/to/tar worked but it still said no such directory

Anyone here?

Use your mouse and capture the screen output and paste it here.

If you can't get that, type ls -l > output and tail -100 .bash_history >> output paste the file output to a post here.
