[K12OSN] for those would like to try flash player9 -plugin

[Petre Scheie]

Barry-
Please post this on the wiki, which now has support for hosting files such as the RPMs 
you mention (thanks to Dan Young for the wiki upgrade that now allows this).  Be sure to 
date it and indicate what version of K12LTSP you're using (as you have below). 
Eventually, the information will be unnecessary, as sound and Flash issues go away over 
time.  But that's a few years away yet, and in the mean time, your instructions would be 
  helpful to many I'm sure.
