Hi,I'm a total beginner to Linux. I'm installing the system without a root user. Just as a user who will use 'sudo'. When I go to Software selection I uncheck all options and leave only 'standard system utlilties'. I follow these commands from github:git clone https://github.com/ChrisTitusTech/debian-tituscd debian-titussudo ./install.shUnfortunately after a long time, **
I get this message displayed:"You need to be a member of the sudo group to run me!"**Previously it displays me this:Using aptUsage: grep [OPTION] ... PATTERNS [FILE] ...Try 'grep -- help' for more information.
Do you know how to fix it/cause it to install completely correctly and successfully though?

For some reason, it displays that for everyone but it still installs properly. Don't worry about that. Just run sudo reboot.

This can be closed, I think.

@vik24 I've only gotten this on debian 12 when assigning a password to the root user, when not assigning a root password I don't get this and am able to run sudo commands just fine.

If you run the install script does it work?

Yeah, I think it happens when you set a password for the root user. But you shouldn't be doing that anyway because I've heard it's a security risk.
Besides, the error happens for no reason and the desktop fully installs if you reboot it.
