Grazie della velocità con la quale a risposto alla mia domanda. Non ci sono riuscito ad installarlo. Premetto il fatto che provengo da win xp, vista ..e la mia conoscenza riguardo linux e molto scarsa. Allora la cartella root/nome non esiste. Presumo che lei si riferiva alla cartella /root/iriverter-0.16. Bene se e cosi allora fino qui ci siamo pero poi se scrivo cd iriver non mi trova niente. Fine della storia. Non riesco andare avanti. Grazie.

Adesso e saltato fuori un altro problema. Credo che manca java o qualcosa da genere. Vi riporto in seguito il risultato ottenuto nel terminale.
