Hi to any linux pros....
looking for help with working inside xterminal.... tried googling some info but not a lot came up.... maybe asking the wrong thing.
I'm trying to install hamachi on the n770 and have the binary in /home/user.
now I'm sure it has to be in /usr/bin and then install there....
but how do i move it from one file to another.....
this is my first linux experience....
and yes i've read the README file..... 3 or 4 times.....
I don't know hamachi, but if there's an executable file that's meant to be in /usr/bin/ then you can either
a) Copy it there, or
b) Move it there.
a) cp -p /home/user/filename /usr/bin/.
(note '.' at end, not strictly needed here but can be thought of as 'same name' in this case)
or
b) mv /home/user/filename /usr/bin/.
(same comment as above)
And lastly: Make sure that it's executable:
chmod a+x /usr/bin/filename
('filename' is obviously the file you're copying/moving)
Does the README say anything about 'suid root' or something? If so then there's an additional step.. someone else will explain that if so, I gotta go..
