How do I get permission to unzip, write, move into root folders?
Hi,
use sudo
to run your commands as root
so instead of mv /usr/local/share/whatever /to/wherever
, type sudo mv /usr/local/share/whatever /to/wherever
EDIT : It won’t work if your user is not in the wheel group

Piece of advice: ask yourself first if you really need to do that.
Root folders are where your system sits. There is a reason you can’t write to it by default…
