Also just for reference, :D you can use the command line to give yourself write access to /opt (I always do)


From Command Line:
Code: [Select]
sudo chmod -R 777 /opt
That will allow you to install things to that location.  Don't do this everywhere though as it can screw up your system.  For /opt though it is perfectly safe!
