Cannot install RVM . Permission denied in /usr/local/rvm
Based on my previous thread : RVM installed by Ruby not working? where i had installed RVM using the root user, I then had to entirely remove the RVM install and now i am installing as a user. So i did : Create a new user by doing : useradd newuser Follow the instructions on the RVM website and execute the command : bash < <( curl http://rvm.beginrescueend.com/releases/rvm-install-head ) Now, i get the error : mkdir: cannot create directory `/usr/local/rvm': Permission denied The new user i created does not have access to this directory. I manually tried creating the folder but the same error.
