Either you need to install the binaries as root or install sufficient build tools as root. There's a slight chance that you could unpack the Debian binaries somewhere and then fix up the paths, but you're on your own. If you really need to use it and are not root, a slow but workable approach is to install R on a USB stick and run from there. I have done this for R.2.3.1 but I have not upgraded to a newer package. __ R-help@stat.math.ethz.ch mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.

If you can get the F77 compiler installed you can configure, make, test and run R from its bin directory without being root. I did this last night on a SuSE box with 2.4.0 prior to doing a final make install as root. jab -- John Bollinger, CFA, CMT www.BollingerBands.com If you advance far enough, you arrive at the beginning. __ R-help@stat.math.ethz.ch mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
Re: [R] Install R in Linux
Perhaps you might have a look at the quantian live distribution. If you can boot your PC from this you have access to R and you should be able to acess and use any data files on your hard disk. The current Quantian live DVD is based on Knoppix 4.02 (I think). I have installed the Quantian DVD on a USB hard drive and boot from a knoppix 4.02 live CD on one PC Best Regards John On 13/12/06, lu kan [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi, Is it possible to install R in a linux box (Debian) without being a root.
