    What program & what are you trying to install? .bin generally denotes an executeable file which will 'run' when you open it but it is not normal to install a program as a bin file. If you are trying to install applications, see this: http://www.knoppix.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=14977

    Re: what to do with .bin files?

    To execute the file, make sure that it is marked as executable (if not type 'chmod +x filename.bin') and then type 'sh filenname.bin' or './filenname.bin'.
