You need to...

dnf -y install gcc gcc-c++ make
mkdir /root/.log.io  
touch /root/.log.io/harvester.conf
touch /root/.log.io/log_server.conf
touch /root/.log.io/web_server.conf

Then you can do...

npm install -g log.io --user 'user'

Obviously root should have access to its own home directory. And just to be sure, SELinux was disabled before this run.

I finally got Log.io running and I like it. It will be really useful on the server for my website.
