Java JRE plugin for firefox now available it is in the myDSL repository. It works for the firefox.tar.gz. Firefox needs to be loaded first.

If I place them both in the root of my cd, when I reboot, how do Imake sure firefox.tar.gz loads first.. Is is as easy as "F" before "J" ?
Since I cannot write a file to my / directory in a liveCD session,
how else can I load these files, once I am booted up at my desktop?
( AFAIK, mydsl-load or myDSL only works with .dsl files )

Oops. You found a bug. Should have loaded. Will be fixed in next release. For now rename it from .tar.gz to tgz and it will load from mydsl-load or the button in emelfm.

Note: do not change the name if you are placing it in the root directory of myDSL. It works fine when placed there. The problem noted above is only for on-demand loading using mydsl-load or the emelfm myDSL button. Note also this is true for any .tar.gz files in 0.7.1. This will be corrected in 0.7.2

Yes I've grown to love emelfm with use despite having hated it at first. Recently found myself installing it on a full kde 3.2 distro as I wanted the two (MC-like) panes to work with. Fast & efficient.
