Paul... Paul.... Paul...

Even though you continue to amaze me with your level of knowledge (you
are to Linux what my wife is the national enquirer) I still trounced you
at fantasy baseball last week (15-5).

One of these days I'll actually go to training for the things I support.
But training costs on the 5 products and 7 languages and 6 operating
systems apparently outstrips the cost of me fumbling my way through
things. 

Thanks for the newbie assist.

Scott,
To make things even easier, you can just mount the iso image under
Linux.
Try this:

mount -o loop /path/to/iso /path/to/mount/point

You should then be able to just cd /path/to/mount/point and run the
install
with no additional steps.
