I'm trying to init a repo to download the android-x86 source. I've done it before and had no problems.

Today it keeps saying permission denied, i've reset the permissions and owner with chmod and chown, no dice.

[Errno 13] Permission denied

I've tried with and without sudo. I am the only user of the PC but it keeps refusing to init the repo. Is there a way round this without a full reinstall of ubuntu? The permissions system makes no sense to me. I am the only user, I own the folders, I own the files, permissions are set to allow read, write, execute and still I get permission denied errors.

Please help.

  • Please explain more clearly what you are doing. What command says that? Where are you running that command, etc? – Sami Kuhmonen Dec 12 '19 at 11:55
  • The command I am running is the standard repo init from the android-x86 website. repo init -u git://git.osdn.net/gitroot/android-x86/manifest -b pie. – Gary the Duck Dec 12 '19 at 12:01
