No need to apologise for being new to Linux, we have all been there. A couple 
of tips though. If you haven’t already learnt how to copy/paste text to and 
from the Linux terminal do so. It makes it much easier to enter long or complex 
commands without error. It also makes it easier to copy the exact command 
entered and the exact response when things go wrong. You can then post the 
exact command entered and the exact response here when seeking help. Make it 
easier for those helping as it is clear exactly what was entered and the 
response, sometime typos happen or descriptions can miss things.  Finally read 
the instructions from top to bottom, don’t just cherry pick commands. If a 
command doesn’t work re-read the instructions. 

In the case of WeeWX-WD $DOWNLOAD_ROOT is another symbolic name (just as $BIN 
was earlier) that you need to substitute a value for. In this case I would just 
use /var/tmp, ie:

$ wget -P /var/tmp 
https://github.com/gjr80/weewx-weewx-wd/releases/download/v2.0.0/weewxwd-2.0.0.tar.gz

You will then need to substitute /var/tmp for $DOWNLOAD_ROOT through the the 
rest of the install instructions.

If you have any further problems with WeeWX-WD I suggest you start a new thread.
