Installing Arduino IDE on Linux Mint 17
by sswcharlie from LinuxQuestions.org on (#5JZP1)
Hi
Installing latest version of Arduino IDE on my laptop Linux Mint17.
Using terminal. Starts off ok and then comes up with this message --
*************************
.........@charles7-Satellite-Pro-L500 ~ $ Documents/ArduinoIDE1.8.15/arduino-nightly/install.sh
Adding desktop shortcut, menu item and file associations for Arduino IDE...
ln: failed to create symbolic link /usr/local/bin/arduino': Permission denied
Adding symlink failed. Hope that's OK. If not then rerun as root with sudo.
done!
*************************
How do I rerun as root with sudo commands ?
Thankyou
Charles Harris
