Beta 2 fails to install on CachyOS (arch linux)

Post by markr »

Beta 1 installed with no problems but Beta 2 loops getting "Permission Denied" errors because it is attempting to modify the /usr directory without root permission. Previous versions only modify /home.

Apparently version 1417 did install but for some reason the install script is in an endless loop attempting to modify /usr.

Thanks for your post — I've forwarded the details for further investigation.

For the Windows issue, could you share a bit more detail, with a screenshot of exactly what happens when installing the Beta (S1417) — the precise error message or where it fails? That'll help us diagnose it.
