Hello FreeSurfer Developers,

I'm attempting to extract the freesurfer program from (http://freesurfer.net/fswiki/DownloadAndInstall) but I get the following error when I run the tar -C /usr/local -xzvf freesurfer-Linux-centos6_x86_64-stable-pub-v6.0.0.tar.gz command (i changed the /usr/local to my path where i want my freesurfer folder) :

tar: freesurfer/subjects/fsaverage5/surf/lh.inflated: Cannot hard link to ‘freesurfer/subjects/fsaverage5/surf/lh.inflated-from-fsaverage’: Operation not permitted tar: Exiting with failure status due to previous errors

I've searched the log for errors with the (tar -xzf reesurfer-Linux-centos6_x86_64-stable-pub-v6.0.0.tar.gz command). I also tried using sudo before the tar command without success. The same error comes back.

I've run the steps proposed by (http://freesurfer.net/fswiki/DownloadAndInstall) to see if the program is working fine. I can convert the sample001 to nifty but the recon-all command ends up with errors. These are the errors that I get (See attached)

Does anyone have any thoughts on how to trouble-shoot this?

Can you help me ?

Thank you
