    Hello Steve and welcome to the forums.

    Initially a see two issues and have a couple notes. The script you are using is for our upcoming 1.1.0 release. Which at this time should work but we don’t have our Image files made and release on the site at the writing of this message. If you want to just stay tuned for a week or two we hope to have these release soon. Then you would be able to just download the IMG file and write it to your card.

    The scripts are for more advanced users and for our team to build the IMG files for end users. You are welcome to try it if you’d like. Any issue with the scripts would also be best addressed in the scripts repo on GitHub via the issues tracking system.

    I notice 2 things you appear to be doing incorrect:

    • First the script needs to be run the root user and not as the default pi users
    • Second it looks like you wget the wrong url for the script. One of your errors says ‘<!DOCTYPE html>’. You are not going to find this in our script. Looks like you just copied the github page where the script is located. so you got the website with all the wrapping code. You should copy the RAW url from the button on that page.

    MAKE SURE THAT YOU ARE FOLLOWING THE README FILE THAT IS IN THE SAME FOLDER ON GITHUB

    Here are some other things you need to know.

    • The install is only tested/supported on the Raspberry Pi 2 (multi core cpu), results with older RPI boards is unknown at this time.
    • You must be running a version of Debian Jessie for the installer to work correctly. We reference a preferred base IMG of this in the Readme that is known to work.
    • As stated, the ReadMe file must be followed step by step.

    Hope this is of help and again if you’d like to wait, the 1.1.0 image should be available from the downloads page soon. 1.0.0 is the currently available image. But there are some nice improvements in this upcoming version. Just make sure you are on the mailing and follow our social accounts. We will send out notice that way.

    73 and good luck,
