Thanks for the input. I setup my pclos install to use sudo out of habit. All it takes is to edit the sudoers file with visudo and add the user like so.
# su -
# visudo
Then edit the user privelege specification so it looks something like this.
"# User privilege specification
root ALL=(ALL) ALL
mini ALL=(ALL) ALL"
Where mini is the name of the user. Substitute your user name of course.
type "wq!" to save and exit and sudo is setup!
Revising the script to your specs would look something like this. With files downloaded and compiled in /tmp. It checks to see if the user is root and if not, then exits.
#!/bin/bash
if [ "$UID" != "0" ]; then
echo The mplayer installation requires root privileges.
echo Please login as root, and run:
echo cdrtools-install.sh again
echo Press ENTER to continue...
read dummy
exit 0
