Resolved Update: apparently cat cannot write to /etc. Resolved by using:

sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/mozilla.sources <<eof types: deb uris: https: packages.mozilla.org apt suites: mozilla components: main signed-by: etc keyrings packages.mozilla.org.asc eof p></eof>

The instructions need updating!

_________________original problem (in case some one else needs the information)

I am following the instructions in section "Install Firefox from Mozilla Repository (Recommended)" at https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/run-firefox-chromeos At step 4 I am receiving a permission denied error: "-bash: /etc/apt/sources.list.d/mozilla.sources: Permission denied" I am not sure how to resolve or continue.

Last command and output:

username@penguin:~ cat <<EOF > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/mozilla.sources Types: deb URIs: https://packages.mozilla.org/apt Suites: mozilla Components: main Signed-By: /etc/apt/keyrings/packages.mozilla.org.asc EOF -bash: /etc/apt/sources.list.d/mozilla.sources: Permission denied

I do see the article has pending updates to pretty much the same tune: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/run-firefox-chromeos/history

Thanks for confirming this! It needs a reviewer to approve the new revisions first, but it will get live eventually.
