This is for all book lovers who cant leave without Adobe Reader.
Open your browser to http://get.adobe.com/reader/otherversions/ and select Linux -x86 (.deb) from the first drop down.
Rename the file to adobereader.deb.
After download, issue the following below command as root:
dpkg -i install adobereader.deb
Thats it you are done now to use Adobe Reader and of course your fav books in it.
