@ -33,6 +33,13 @@ The following will install a setup as shown in :ref:`architecture`. First you
need to get a clone. The clone is only needed for the installation procedure
and some maintenance tasks (alternatively you can create your own fork).
For the installation procedure, use a *sudoer* login to run the scripts. If you
install from ``root``, take into account that the scripts are creating a
``searx``, a ``filtron`` and a ``morty`` user. In the installation procedure
these new created users do need read access to the clone of searx, which is not
the case if you clone into a folder below ``/root``.
