How do you reinstall firefox on Linux without any internet browser? My boyfriend just did this and I'm trying to help him get it back.

Firefox was playing up so he deleted it with the idea of re-installing it and obviously didn't think ahead. Now he has no internet browser, so he has no way of re-installing firefox. Does anyone have any suggestions?

With most Linux distros you can access the program repository without using a web browser and install programs from the repository.
