[ros-users] roscreate permissions issue

[maitri982]

Thanks Adam,

this seems to get me closer...it doesn't like that the beginner_tutorials
folder is already in my home path...I am not sure what put it there.  should
I just delete it and then run teh command?

FYI...below is the terminal print showing the steps:

kevin at kevin-robot:~$ echo $HOME
/home/kevin
kevin at kevin-robot:~$ echo $PATH
/opt/ros/cturtle/ros/bin:/opt/ros/cturtle/ros/bin:/opt/ros/cturtle/ros/bin:/opt/ros/cturtle/ros/bin:/opt/ros/cturtle/ros/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games
kevin at kevin-robot:~$ cd ~/
kevin at kevin-robot:~$ mkdir ros_tutorials
kevin at kevin-robot:~$ ls
