+#### bash: netdata-claim.sh: command not found
+
+If you run the claiming script and see a `command not found` error, you either installed Netdata in a non-standard
+location or are using an unsupported package. If you installed Netdata in a non-standard path using the `--install`
+option, you need to update your `$PATH` or run `netdata-claim.sh` using the full path. For example, if you installed
+Netdata to `/opt/netdata`, use `/opt/netdata/bin/netdata-claim.sh` to run the claiming script.
+
+If you are using an unsupported package, such as a third-party `.deb`/`.rpm` package provided by your distribution,
+please remove that package and reinstall using our [recommended kickstart script](/docs/get#install-the-netdata-agent).
