I am having the same problem in that my /usr/bin is not writeable. if I try to execute node in the same directory it's in with ./node -v I get a permission denied. I tried cp * /usr/local, as local was the only writeable directory I could find. When I try to execute node in the local directory I get "can not execute binary."
can you help me figure out how to get node up and running? Thank you so very, very much! BTW: I really enjoyed your Bootcamp 3 tutorials.

Update: so using information in the link you provided I made my usr/bin writeable and copied the files into /usr/bin. Now when i try to execute xz or node I get "cannot execute binary file".
Any ideas? Thanks!
