Extract permission denied - Newbie

[roguetrooper]

Im tryin to extract from a downloaded tar file to another file location. I keep getting permission denied msgs. How do I overcome this? Have searched the boards and googled but just can make sense of it all. I am new to Fedora.

Apart from that, the AA1 is a very cool piece of kit , be even better when i can get over this prob and get bluetooth working

Could this be a permissions thing or an unsupported rar thing?

For permissions, try opening the rar file in root.

To get rar support there should be a terminal command like "yum install rar" or something like that, but check around before trying.

Thanks for your reply, unfortunately i'm a linux virgin and have no idea about any of that lol im guessing i should unzip this in a terminal window or something?
