[maemo-developers] need help installing maemo on fedora 8

[From: Avishek_Sharma]

Hi again,
   I tried 'sudo /scratchbox/sbin/sbox_ctl start' instead of '/scratchbox/login' after rebooting and logining in as the user 'muser' I had added to 'sbox 'group.
I was asked for a password( I didn't set one when  I created 'muser').So,I typed in the system password(the one which I used to login as the user) but,I got the message
Password:
 avi123 is not in the sudoers  file.  This incident will be reported.

What should I do?Please advice.
regards,
Avi

Have you extracted also the devkits and toolchains?

After a boot you need to start Scratchbox.

When it's installed from debian packages, it's done "automatically".
When installing from tarballs you need to start it manually:

sudo /scratchbox/sbin/sbox_ctl start
