Google Chrome - Debian step by step install

Chrome is available for Linux at http://chrome.google.com
there doesn't seems to be any official Debian "repository" yet to install it using synaptic (packet manager) - the installation has to be manual

1. need to download the package from this page below
Google Chrome - Get a fast new browser. For PC, Mac, and Linux


2. When on the desktop using xfe (file manager) and using the root user - you need to right click the package and choose install/upgrade




3. The package is then installed and will also appear in synaptic




That was easy!
