Installing Opera 11.64 on TinyCore 5.1 x86_64 via .rpm or .deb

Hi all,

In Opera 12 I can't figure out how to remove the "Opera" menu button (and top bar) like I could with Opera 11.  Since I am using Opera in a kiosk-like implementation I am trying to install Opera 11.64 but have run into problems.
(In case you are wondering, fullscreen and kiosk modes don't work because they override Fluxbox layering.)

Here is what I have tried (on TC 5.1 x86_64), with files downloaded from here: http://www.opera.com/download/guide/?os=linux-x86-64&ver=11.64&local=y
(Note: squashfs-tools, findutils, gzip, bzip2, and xz are all installed.)

* rpm2cpio opera-11.64-1403.x86_64.rpm | cpio -vid
* rpm2cpio: no gzip/bzip2/xz magic
* Download deb2tcz and chmod +x
* sudo ./deb2tcz opera_11.64.1403_amd64.deb  opera-11.tcz
* tar: invalid magic
* tar: short read...
I have downloaded the files multiple times on different machines to make sure there the files are not corrupted.

I have also tried downloading the tarball (on the downloads page, select "Other(TAR)" and (.tar.bz2), and doing the following:

* tar -xvjf opera-11.64-1403.x86_64.linux.tar.bz2
* cd opera-11.64-1403.x86_64.linux/
* ./install --user --repackage /tmp/opera/
* mksquashfs /tmp/opera/ /home/tc/opera-11.tcz...which installs but is unusable.

As aways, any help and/or points in the right direction would be greatly appreciated.

It's the same binary in all three packages, so you should use the tarball. What do you mean by unusable?

If I put opera-11.tcz into my "optional" directory and load it using "tce-load -i opera-11", I get an "OK" after the install, but then when I try to run it I get: /bin/opera: exec: line 4: /home/tc/.local/lib/opera/opera: not found

I'm assuming I am missing an install flag or two....maybe --prefix?

Just tried again with these steps to install on system level instead of user level (--system=--prefix /usr/bin), also changed the install name to match convention:

* tar -xvjf opera-11.64-1403.x86_64.linux.tar.bz2
* cd opera-11.64-1403.x86_64.linux/
* ./install --system --name opera-11 --repackage /tmp/opera/
* mksquashfs /tmp/opera/ /mnt/sda1/tce/optional/opera-11.tcz
* tce-load -i opera-11
* RESULT: /etc/sysconfig/tcedir/optional/opera-11.tcz: OK
* opera-11
* RESULT: /bin/opera-11: exec: line 4: /usr/local/lib/opera-11/opera-11: not found

1. Enable Tab Bar
2. In both  opera:config#UserPrefs|PagebarHeight & opera:config#UserPrefs|PagebarWidth set values to -1
3. Restart
