Hello everyone!  
I just installed Mycroft on my Ubuntu desktop by following the tutorial ([Linux - Mycroft AI](https://mycroft-ai.gitbook.io/docs/using-mycroft-ai/get-mycroft/linux#running-mycroft-for-linux)). But when I try to run “start-mycroft.sh”, it just sends the error message “command not found”. Any help would be greatly apprechiated. Thanks in advance!

EDIT: Problem solved. I didn’t realize i had to be in the mycroft-core directory to run the starting command. Hope this helps someone.
