[driverloader] CLI web browser & driverloader install

[Marty Huntzberry]

the dldrinstall.run script is nice...but I don't have an internet
connection on the pc that's wireless until I install the drivers.  I
have the .gz package, untar, make install, and sh dldrconfig.  How can
I set this up for a tty session?

I did not install a GUI session so I cannot install driverloader with Firefox at the end (it asks you for the Win drivers).  I can browse the webs with a CLI or text interface with Lynx.  How do I install driverloader with Lynx?
