I installed mine in the same folder as you did as root. All went ok and I added the user data without any problem. When I ran it as a user I was prompted for the same info, types it in and all is ok. I'm up and running. Josef wrote:
I downloaded netscape 7 pr1 using the intaller provided, in an /opt/netscape7 directory.When I fire it up ,it prompts me to create a new user profile in order to start.If I proceed to create a new profile, say josef, I cannot select where my profile is to be stored in the "Choose Folder " option. The pull down menu "Look in" does not present me with any options and I cannot type into it as well. As a consequence I cannot start netscape 7.0. I am wondering whether anybody else had such problems or could help.
Thanks in advance,
