Hi there, sorry I'm not too versed in Linux. I'm having trouble installing Lilypond on a Hostmonster account. The host is shared, and I am not root, so I don't have complete freedom. I downloaded lilypond-2.18.2-1.linux-64.sh in /home1/myaccountname/lilypond_install, made it executable and then issued ./lilypond-2.18.2-1.linux-64.sh --prefix /home1/myaccountname/ from that directory (/home1/myaccountname/lilypond_install). After successfully creating dirs and binaries, I get loads of errors when untarring, see below. Does it mean that I just cannot install it unless I buy a virtual server all for myself? Any suggestions on what to ask/request from Hostmonster's support?
Thanks!
