Don't compile or install as root!

Dont compile it as root! It clearly says so!

give ssh access to your main webhost account or reseller account, and do it from their.

So you mean logout of ROOT account and login to another?

create a new linux user

adduser desiboy

set password for the new user that you created above

passwd desiboy

it will ask for a password..
create a new ssh session and login to your with the new user that you created..
