I suppose they were downloaded to the directory sage-5.5-linux-32bit-fedora_release_16_verne_-i686-Linux
, which I think means /home/MP/sage-5.5-linux-32bit-fedora_release_16_verne_-i686-Linux
, if I'm interpreting the rest of your post correctly. So either
$ cd sage-5.5-linux-32bit-fedora_release_16_verne_-i686-Linux
$ ./sage
or
$ cd /home/MP/sage-5.5-linux-32bit-fedora_release_16_verne_-i686-Linux
$ ./sage
should work (or both). In general, starting from the beginning:
$ cd # this takes you to your "home" directory
$ ls # this lists the files in the current directory, including subdirectories
One of those should start with "sage-5.5", if this is where you extracted the lzma file. So
$ cd sage-5.5<TAB>
Hit the <tab> key where indicated, and the directory name should be completed for you. If you run ls
now, you should see a file called "sage". Execute it to run Sage:
$ ./sage
(.
is the current directory, so ./sage
refers to the file "sage" in this directory.)
