When I try to open/load the downloaded new version: firefox-9.0b6.tar.bz2 with the default Archive Manager in Linux Mint 10 Julia I get this error message:

"bzip2: Compressed file ends unexpectedly; perhaps it is corrupted? *Possible* reason follows. bzip2: Inappropriate ioctl for device Input file = (stdin), output file = (stdout) It is possible that the compressed file(s) have become corrupted. You can use the -tvv option to test integrity of such files. You can use the `bzip2recover' program to attempt to recover data from undamaged sections of corrupted files. tar: Unexpected EOF in archive tar: Error is not recoverable: exiting now"

Perhaps it is also of note that I am running Linux from a thumbdrive through the USB port on my Asus EeePC.

=== What do I do so I can get firefox to work? This began because I can't get Adobe flash and gmail to work properly and realize (at least for gmail) I need to upgrade.

Can you open any other Firefox tar.bz2 archives?
