For multi-user installation (check the license first though) log in as
root. cd to the directory where so501 directory is located then as root
start the installation with ./setup /net Note the space. Install the
program into say /opt/SOffice51 Then log in as user say "filbert" and cd
to /opt/Soffice/bin and run ./setup The install program will allow you
several options, use the option that installs the minimal files to your
home directory 'filbert' This method was originally posted with 4.3 and
still work at this end. Good luck
