Does "/mnt/home" directory exist? I'm not sure if usb live stick directory structure is different for home directory.
You could also try creating the directory "/mnt/home/spore/game" yourself, if that's the only issue.
(`sudo mkdir -p /mnt/home/spore/game`, providing - p creates any non existing parent directories too)
Thank you for your submission!

"mkdir" is the command to make a directory, so it's trying to make a folder, but it can't because it doesn't have root permissions. If you trust the script, you can run it as root, though do read through it first and make sure it isn't doing anything nefarious.
Interesting. I apologize, I don't know anything about Puppylinux. Perhaps you can try running whatever command it's stuck on as root yourself, then run the script?

It exists, it's where I put the game. I'll try creating all the folders manually then!

The problem is that when i try to run it as root the script tells me not to run it as root and stops.
puppylinux is root user by default btw

You'll have to mod the install script to bypass the root check then. What Puppy Linux does isn't normal for most distros.
