OEL: Install Google-Chrome on Oracle Enterprise Linux 6.2

These steps show how to install Google Chrome on Oracle Enterprise Linux 6.x.  I suspect these steps would also work with Fedora, CentOS and Red Hat (RHEL).  This approach uses Google's YUM repository.

§  Login or switch to the root user

§  Create a file named google.repo in the /etc/yum.repos.d dirctory

§  Add the appropriate segment to your new google.repo file
