The firefox rpm for i386 architecture is here: http://download.fedora.us/fedora/fedora/2/i386/RPMS.stable/firefox-0.9.1-0.fdr.3.i386.rpm It is for FC2 and works like a charm (it even imports user settings...) If you are using FC1 then I'd suggest taking the source rpm package http://download.fedora.us/fedora/fedora/2/i386/SRPMS.stable/firefox-0.9.1-0.fdr.3.src.rpm and rebuild ( become root and run # rpmbuild --rebuild /wherever/is/firefox-0.9.1-0.fdr.3.src.rpm ) if everything goes OK you will have a /usr/src/redhat/RPMS/i386/firefox-0.9.1-0.fdr.3.i386.rpm that you can install with the usual... rpm -Uvh /usr/src/redhat/RPMS/i386/firefox-0.9.1-0.fdr.3.i386.rpm (This last approach also works -mutatis mutandis- for x86_64 architecture) Using nonrpm packages in an 'rpm' system like fedora is somewhat 'risky' and error prone... :-\ Rgds.
