just unpacked ff4 in ~/Downloads. Maybe i have to create a couple of symlinks or smth? Executing run-mozilla.sh gives: run-mozilla.sh: Cannot execute . README.txt is extremely poor.

Or, at least, where are the starting logs created? Please help! I really want to use ff4!

You need to start Firefox via the firefox script in the installation directory.

Make sure that you meet the Firefox 4 requirements and have the 32 bit versions of all required libraries installed.
