Are you saying that you have a command line only install?

Update : Sadly, the Google Chrome browser no longer supports the most famous commercial distribution RHEL 6.x and its free clones such as CentOS and Scientific Linux.
I Read this here :http://www.tecmint.com/install-googl...-fedora-linux/
Then it is said

Luckily, there is a script developed by Richard Lloyd, that automatically download and install latest Google Chrome browser by picking libraries from a more recent released distro and put those libraries in (/opt/google/chrome/lib) directory and then you can able to run Google Chrome on RHEL/CentOS 6.x versions.
Anyways. If this is a 32 bit install of CentOS. None of this really matters.
