Many thanks for the help and advice.
As well as installing zsh and powerlevel 10k on the gentoo install I have I
also did it with ubuntu. Ubuntu is easier because prepared binary packages
are available to install things including the nerd fonts.
When i installed powerlevel10k using the omyzsh instructions I could get it
to run.
So I used the standard manual install instructions and it ended up in the
/root directory. When I put that path into the .zshrc and ran exec zsh as
a user powerlevel 10k began to run.
The wizard ran and I set up a dozen or so prompt environment parameters and
at the end noticed a warning message:
Apply changes to ~/.zshrc?
WARNING: ~/.zshrc is readonly and not owned by the user. Cannot modify
it.
(y) Yes (disabled).
(n) No. I know which changes to apply and will do it myself.
(r) Restart from the beginning.
(q) Quit and do nothing.
Choice [nrq]:
This meant I could not save the chosen options and carry on with them.
What sort of problem is this?
is it a file permissions problem?
I did not get that problem with the gentoo install.
Comments appreciated.
Regards
MF
