Hello,
I have PC with Ubuntu 11.04 (32-bit) and I tried to install the software which came along with Reliance Netconnect+ for linux. Here's a screenshot of my tries at it -



Can anyone tell me why it isn't execute the command ./install /root/Desktop. I have even tried sudo along with it and followed the instructions which came along with the data card.

What are you trying to do?
List your directory with ls. You need to chmod +x ./install to facilitate it to run anyway.

There are two problems here. First is that the .install script is not execuatble. make it executable by chmod +x ./install. secondly your are installing into the /root directory where you have no permissions. Try to install in your home directory or try "sudo ./install /root/desktop".
