Hi,
please be aware that the flashinstallation is not a GUI-job. You have to
open the .tar.gz-file, do this as "root".
In the new directory "install_flash_player_6_linux" you _will_ find the
installer, simply change to this new directory via "cd" and run
./flashplayer-installer
It worked for me to simply press enter a few times, asked for the path
to my browser i asked: /usr/lib/mozilla-1.4.1 and now i do have flash.
I'm sure, it's going to work for you, too.
It also may work to copy the files "flashplayer.xpt" and
"libflashplayer.so" to your plugins-directory.
Or: simply use the rpm -file Peter Baklund posted (it didn't work for
me, though ;)
