Permission denied error when executing make run on Linux

[3DRX]

When I directly run make run on my machine, it prompts to let me input password, but still failed due to permission denied. It seems to be working fine when I run sudo make run. Should the README mention using this command as root?

OS: Debian 12

Hi @3DRX !

It should work as non-root too. Assuming you are using Docker, the trick is to add your user to the docker group. See: https://docs.docker.com/engine/install/linux-postinstall/#manage-docker-as-a-non-root-user

[kixelated]

./dev/all is the new replacement for make. You can still use docker, just via docker-compose up --build. No root should be needed even when using docker.
