it's case sensitive
you also need to untar the downloaded file first...then cd into that folder where the "install" file is, before you can use the command "./install" .
the ./ part means you are in that folder where install is... so if you're not in that folder, the command won't work or you may end up running the install of some other software.

I use WinRAR to unzip, untar whatever....in Win XP.
Then if you like, transfer that directory's worth of stuff over to the N800 via Bluetooth etc. Then do that install thing that you wanted...

tar -zxvf hamachi-0.9.9.9-20-lnx-n770.tar.gz

cheers luke....
I'd already downloaded the tar.gz file to both my computer and N770.....
just that no one told me that a tar file was pretty much the same as a rar file and i could use winRAR...... DOH!
Cheers again for the enlightenment....
so simple too.....don't know why i didn't think of it myself now..... hmmmmm...

I've read the forums and being new to linux I still haven't figured it out...
I'm using ssh to access my 770 but when i type 'make install' it can't find make..
and yes i am accessing as root.....
why is it so?
anyone have luck with hamachi?
why can't xterm find root..... what am i doing wrong..
