I just checked that the only additional step you recommend is:

> apt-get install ./freesurfer_ubuntu22-7.4.1_amd64.deb

Sourcing the rest have remained the same. So why can you not also upload the tar ball?

We have always untarred up to 7.1.0 and used it successfully. This was the good thing about FreeSurfer that did not require a client side installation. I am the administrator and I can tell you that installation of this software via root is infeasible for 100 computers.

Given your comment about 7.4.1 tarball being not installer, we want to know--has the installation mechanism changed since 7.4.1?

Best,
