  That’s what immutable means in this case. You can’t modify outside of your user directory, at least not directly, on immutable distros. The files outside of your ~ home path are read-only. You can override that a few different ways, however. If your VPN has a flatpak, that’s the easiest way to get it up and running. If you don’t care about more space (minimal, if you only do it for your VPN) being used, you may be able to follow your VPN’s fedora instructions, replacing dnf with rpm-ostree. That will likely allow you to install as you can in other distros.

  Feel free to ask any questions if you have any, I’m happy to help.

    Thanks mate. I’m very new to Linux and still have the 101’s to learn. I’m going to see if I can find a CLI cheat sheet somewhere to memorise 😜

      Ah, yeah, if your VPN only provides a run script you may need to try it in distrobox and see if it works there. It’s probably trying to put libraries in immutable portions of the install. Good work figuring Linux out, I know it can be a bit daunting at first but you’ll get the hang of it!

        I spent 2 hours trying to work it out last night lol Eventually tried the method of downloading PUA config file and adding new VPN connection in settings and even that didn’t work. It was stuck on need authorisation when connecting. I got tired and gave up, I’ll go back to it again haha
