As root, type:
Code:ln -s /usr/bin/firefox <location of Firefox executable>

I tried that but got a message telling me the file already existed. But I looked at the manpage for ln and realized that they need to be the other direction:
works!Code:ln -s <location of firefox executable> /usr/bin/firefox
Thanks so much for all the help! I know it isn't a huge thing but every learning opportunity is great.
