Make Install Error 255 Permission Denied

Hi all, I am following miner installation guide here: https://github.com/maco2035/DiyHeliumHotspots/blob/master/RAK2287/Raspberry%20Pi%204B/Guide.md I messed up something on a line where it says: If you do not want to have to put in your password a million times in the next step, you can create a ssh key in the sub steps below otherwise skip to the next step. Create the ssh key pair. ssh-keygen -t rsa Press enter three times to accept the defaults. Set up your user to use the key pair. ssh-copy-id -i ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub pi@localhost so I followed steps and came to the point: Make the executables: make install when making install it asks for password and then gives all errors below as I messed up something in previous steps so cant make an install I think I made a mistake where it says pi@localhost where I had to input my username??? please help sorting this out 😭 myusername@raspberrypi:~/sx1302_hal $ make install make install -e -C libloragw make[1]: Entering directory '/home/myusername/sx1302_hal/libloragw' ---- Copying libloragw files to localhost:/home/pi/sx1302_hal/bin pi@localhost's password: Permission denied, please try again. pi@localhost's password: Permission denied, please try again. pi@localhost's password: pi@localhost: Permission denied (publickey,password). make[1]: [Makefile:38: install] Error 255 make[1]: Leaving directory '/home/myusername/sx1302_hal/libloragw' make: [Makefile:36: install] Error 2

right

As I said the best thing would be to delete/revert back the ssh key i created . But how?

the default username is pi

wrong

the best thing would be to update the target.cfg file

How do I update it? As I mentioned I am beginner. I appreciate your help and would buy you a pint of beer 🍻

dw about the beer

so

if you run the command ls

it will list all the files in the directory

hopefully one will be called target.cfg

Yes, it is there

alright

so

next command is nano target.cfg

this will let you edit the file

once you've changed the username to be your actual username save the file using Ctrl+O then Ctrl+X then try again

Ok, now it gives different error, it did not ask for a password

make install -e -C libloragw make[1]: Entering directory '/home/myusername/sx1302_hal/libloragw' ---- Copying libloragw files to localhost:/home/pi/sx1302_hal/bin mkdir: cannot create directory ‘/home/pi’: Permission denied make[1]: [Makefile:38: install] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory '/home/myusername/sx1302_hal/libloragw' make: [Makefile:36: install] Error 2

ah

change the pi in target dir to your username too

this config file is shit btw

Ok, thanks, I thought so. Will do now

Hey it worked now! Thanks a lot!!
