This is probably not the best way to install it, as the install script requires you to answer some questions. I would recommend installing it via the command line: cd /path/to/Mac4Lin_Install_v1.0 [on my computer that was ~/Downloads/Mac4Lin_Install_v1.0] then to run the installer type: ./Mac4Lin_Install_v1.0.sh and the installer will run and ask you some yes/no questions. You can uninstall by typing: ./Mac4Lin_Uninstall_v1.0.sh Tom -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UKTeam/
