have choices for installing Win4Lin. The easy way is to let YaST (or your favorite package
manager) handle it. KDE users can open the Win4Lin package in Konqueror and find a
big button labeled Install Package with YaST. GNOME/Nautilus users can right-click the
same package and choose from any of your installed package managers. These applications,
which you??™ll learn more about in Chapter 21, ???Keeping Your System Current:

You can also do the install the old fashioned way, at the command line. Open a shell and
log in as the SuperUser. Go to the directory you downloaded the package to. Type rpm -

filename and then tabbing should work.
Regardless of the method you chose to install the Win4Lin RPM, you??™ll be asked a few questions
about how you want to configure Win4Lin.
