Install a bin file in UBUNTU

I install a .bin the following way:

1. Open your Terminal

2. Change to the directory that the .bin was downloaded to. example:

Code:

cd Desktop

3. To make sure you are in the same directory as your .bin type

Code:

ls

That will display the files in your current directory.

4. Now that you are in the appropriate directory, type sudo chmod +x nameofthefile.bin. That changes your bin to an executable file.

5. Finally, type ./nameofthefile.bin to run it.
