I attempeted to install the portable version of texlive
(on an ssd card)on a linux debian installation.
It started ok, with some files and directories installed,
but then error messages:



Installing [0001/3701, time/total: ??:??/??:??]: 12many
[376k]



tar: tex/latex/12many/12many.sty: Cannot change

ownership to uid 0, gid 0: Operation not permitted



tar: tlpkg/tlpobj/12many.tlpobj: Cannot change ownership
to uid 0, gid 0: Operation not permitted



tar: Exiting with failure status due to previous errors



I was doing this as sudo, so permissions should not have
been a problem. Also, 12many.sty was installed with ownership "rw" for me and "r" for others.



Any suggestions?



Thanks,
John

          4 Backstory: I have a Huawei HG8245 router in my house and I want to change the default username/password. I've tried following this guide but the config file always gets reset. My ISP isn't helping either so I'm looking for other ways to accomplish this. The router has telnet access so this seems like a way to change the credentials. The first shell I gain access to looks like this: WAP> Pressing "?" gives me a list of available commands which I've pasted here, the two interesting ones are "su" and "shell".
