But you made a mistake. In Introduction you are talking about Gran Paradiso (and post troubleshooting link about it) and them you show how to install latest nightly trunk that is called Minefield (every is called Minefield because using it is like walking thought minefield). Actually it is even more upgraded Gran Paradiso but there is no point in using it because it is no official alpha that they want tested. Maybe you wanted it like that, but for people that want Gran Paradios steps are same as written above just you should use command wget -c http://releases.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/releases/granparadiso/alpha1/linux-i686/en-US/granparadiso-alpha1.tar.bz2 instead wget -c http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/nightly/latest-trunk/firefox-3.0a1.en-US.linux-i686.tar.bz2 as you wrote, and command sudo tar -C /opt -jxvf granparadiso-alpha1.tar.bz2 instead sudo tar -C /opt -jxvf firefox-3.0a1.en-US.linux-i686.tar.bz2 when uncompressing. Everything else is same. Cheers You saved me, i needed tut like that.
