Issue/Introduction

nimldr has 755 permissions as shown in the screenshot below:

Running nimldr fails to execute with "Permission denied" despite running as root, with 755 permissions, and root ownership.

Environment

Release : 20.4

Cause

The noexec flag may be set on the directory where the installation files are located.

Resolution

Run the following command to check for the noexec flag:

findmnt -l | grep noexec

This will list the file systems where a flag to prevent file execution is set.  Check if the filesystems where the installation files are listed.  If this flag is set, the installation will fail with no permissions.  Remove the noexec flag from the mount.S
