For some reason I got an error when I selected Open with Software Installer (default) in the Firefox download dialogue. To circumvent the problem, I save the file on the hard drive (e.g. on the desktop -> /home/falko/Desktop)...

... and open a terminal (Applications > Tools > Terminal):

Type

su

to become root and go to the directory where you've saved the Adobe rpm (e.g. /home/falko/Desktop):

cd /home/falko/Desktop/

You can type

ls -l

to find out the exact name of the Adobe rpm. Afterwards, you can install it like this:

rpm -ivh AdobeReader_enu-8.1.2_SU1-1.i486.rpm

After the installation we can delete the Adobe rpm:

rm -f AdobeReader_enu-8.1.2_SU1-1.i486.rpm
