I triedd installing the debian OS and as I recall I had som3e difficulty with it, possibly because it was very different from what I am used to.

Ok, so I've dug a bit deeper into this and installed the most recent release of mint on a VM. Mint is a Linux OS-based upon Debian and Ubuntu. When it comes to handling super user privileges, it's more aligned with the Ubuntu way of doing things. While all of these OS are Debian-based (save for Debian, which is just, well, Debian), certain inheritance may vary from different forks of Debian/Ubuntu.

I installed mint and then went and followed my instructions I provided earlier in the thread of how to install MakeMKV. I was able to get through each step with no issue and enter my password for any sudo command without issue. Upon completion of installation, I launched MakeMKV from not only terminal but also from the app launcher/search menu.


At what step are you having a difficult time? Can you quote the specific command you're struggling with? If you're having issues with a password for sudo commands, keep in mind this is just your standard password.

Can you elaborate on this? What do you mean it won't let enter your password?

Just as an FYI, generally in command line interfaces, the password prompt won't display little stars (*****) as you type, but all entry is invisible. If you think you screwed up as you're typing it, just hit backspace a bunch until you think it's clear. Otherwise, just enter it as you normally would and hit enter.

2. Hit Enter key.

3. Now write your password and hit Enter key.

4. Now write Y and hit Enter key.

• Is YASM support in only disabled for the sake of Makefile versions checks on libavcodec.so? i.e. Could I disable the relevant version checks on libavcodec and MakeMKV would still work without issue?
