User Preparation

Any user (root or non-root) is allowed to perform the AMCT installation procedure. This section uses a non-root user as an example.

To install MindCmd as the root user, skip this section.
To install MindCmd as an existing non-root user, ensure that the user has the read, write, and execute permissions on the $HOME directory.
To install MindCmd as a new non-root user, perform the following steps as the root user. The following uses a new non-root user as an example.
1. Create a Mind Studio installation user and set the user's $HOME directory:
```
useradd -d /home/username -m username
```
2. Set the user password:
```
passwd username
```
  username is the name of the AMCT installation user. The umask value of the user must be at least 0027.
  You can check the umask value by running the umask command.
  You can change the umask value by running the umask NewValue command.
