(make sure you install the one for FC-5 if that is what you are using). also, it's polite to configure a shell script... #!/bin/sh # let system know which shell it is intending to use # # various systems had a problem with code on the second line yum --enablerepo=livna install mplayer mplayer-plugin mplayer-skins chmod u+x mplayerYumscript # make it executable ./mplayerYumscript # would simply execute it or you can leave it as is (without 'x' bit) and simply invoke it via a shell argument... sh mplayerYumscript Not sure why you would want to script a one time command.
