To install the software onto your computer, you need to have the
necessary permissions to do so.
The precise method of obtaining such permission is dependent on your
operating system, but the command su
or sudo bash
are common ways it is done.
Normally a password is required.
Then you can type ‘make install’ and the software will be installed. You should see a result similar to Figure 3.2.

After installation has finished, if you used the
su
or sudo bash
command as described above, then
you should now type ‘exit’ to return to your original shell.
