Miniconda installation issue

Having problem with the following issue: I don't know if I missed something, login as root and I should have all the write permissions.

---- installing extra_pkgs to the base env ----
conda-repo-cli-1.0.1+2.g39f4600-py_0.tar.bz2:

NotWritableError: The current user does not have write permissions to a required path.
path: /.conda/pkgs/urls.txt
uid: 0
gid: 100

If you feel that permissions on this path are set incorrectly, you can manually
change them by executing

$ sudo chown 0:100 /.conda/pkgs/urls.txt

Here is the log:

In general, it's not advisable to use 'sudo conda'.


ROOT:/SYSTEM/var/minirun #>

Hi Raymond,

More likely, the root filesystem is mounted as read-only and it is a reason why conda cannot create a /.conda directory.
The root filesystems rights can be checked by the 'df -v /' command.

As a workaround, you can temporary set $HOME variable to your own home directory and install miniconda at the specified path:
export HOME=/u/<user>
./miniconda-zos-1.2.1-2020-12-23.run -p /var/miniconda

It's better to delete $HOME/.conda directory after the workaround way of installation, because the root rights can block the usage of conda by user whom home directory was used. Miniconda will restore this directory with proper access after start of using.
rm -rf $HOME/.conda

Thanks, 
Sergey

Has to rename attached file:

install.log to install.txt
profile.log to profile.txt
