This tutorial will take you each and every step of the way through installing Linux programs in OS X - using Fink and FinkCommander.

Something I should mention up front - during this process you’ll be asked to enter your password about a half-million times. I left those ’steps’ out to keep this shorter.

1. Installing Fink and Fink Commander
2. Configuring Fink
3. Installing Linux applications
4. Launching Linux applications with Quicksilver
