Permission Denied

[zznight]

Hello all,

I am having trouble installing a driver on BT5. I seem to not have the permission to do so but I am logged in as root. I am a noob at linux so its probable something simple. I have tried changing the file permissions to "read and write" but still I get nothing. Any help would be appreciated ! I am running BT5 64 using "VMware player" on windows 7. Here is the terminal log:

cd /root/rtl8187se_coffee
root@bt:~/rtl8187se_coffee# ./makedrv
bash: ./makedrv: Permission denied
root@bt:~/rtl8187se_coffee#

What are the permissions currently set as? My guess is that you need to make it executable but I'm just stabbing in the dark.

chmod +x makedrv

Hi, a bit of google search would have helped you.
the issue is related to kernel.
anyway your solution is here : http://forums.opensuse.org/archives/...i-fi-help.html

Need to change permisson to the file makedrv
chmod 777 makedrv or as stated by dec1bel: chmod +x makedrv
