Install on Chromebook

Post by James70 »

Just to inform Chromebook users like me, with little knowledge of Linux, who want to install SM Office:

If you follow the instructions on this page: https://www.softmaker.com/en/tips-linux
then, under the heading
Debian
Recommended: Installation via the SoftMaker repository
change the first instruction
su -
into
sudo su -
and follow the rest of the instructions as they are. This will install SM Office on your system.

Alternatively SM Office can be installed by using the download package, but if I'm right it is easier to update it when installed using the repository.
