title: installing miniconda in WSL UBUNTU
body: <p>I executed:</p>
  
  <pre><code>$ wget https://repo.continuum.io/miniconda/Miniconda2-4.7.12.1-Linux-x86_64.sh
  $ bash Miniconda2-4.7.12.1-Linux-x86_64.sh
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>and received the following error code</p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>ERROR conda.core.link:_execute(700): An error occurred while
    installing package 'defaults::python-2.7.17-h9bab390_0'.</p>
  </blockquote>
  
  <p>I thought it would make sense to delete what had been installed and try again with  </p>
  
  <pre><code>$rm -rf /home/username/miniconda2/
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>then received the following error:</p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>rm: cannot remove
    '/home/username/miniconda2/pkgs/python-2.7.17-h9bab390_0/bin/python2.7':
    Permission denied</p>

  <p>I'm not sure what to do next. Thanks for your advice in advance. </p>
