 ## Why does Homebrew on Linux recommend that I install to `/home/linuxbrew/.linuxbrew`?
 
-Homebrew's pre-built binary packages, called bottles, of most software can only be used if you install in `/home/linuxbrew/.linuxbrew`, otherwise they have to be built from source. Building from source takes a long time, is prone to fail, and is not supported. Install Homebrew on Linux in `/home/linuxbrew/.linuxbrew/` if possible so that you can use our pre-built binary packages. If you do not yourself have admin privileges, consider asking your admin staff to create a `linuxbrew` role account for you with home directory `/home/linuxbrew`.

The prefix `/home/linuxbrew/.linuxbrew` was chosen so that users without admin access can ask an admin to create a `linuxbrew` role account and still benefit from precompiled binaries.
