That works for me. Thanks!

Again the same problem when updating to 2.8.0 version

sdetweil

@qu1que yes, sadly the electron folks have not provided updates for pi zero

looks like changing the electron version to “^2.0.0” isn;t working anymore as it tries to intsall 1.8.0 and it gets the following error. Any idea why it isn’t looking for the version in the package.json file? thanks!

“Error: Failed to find Electron v1.8.0 for linux-armv6l at https://github.com/electron/electron/releases/download/v1.8.0/chromedriver-v1.8.0-linux-armv6l.zip”

Solve it like this: “npm install --arch=armv7l”

@InfiProj

Did u mean that instead of simply “npm install” ?

I’ll try on next update

InfiProj

@qu1que
Yes, I just update installation command by --arch argument, and MM installs w/o errors.

@InfiProj is there a command u could use to tell this is a zero, So I could update the installer?

Thanks

@sdetweil
In Linux we can ask OS about architecture. “arch” - this command returns CPU architecture. For rpi zero - armv6l, for rpi 3b - armv7l. Maybe that helps you.

@InfiProj it does. Thx

Not near computer, maybe uname provides info too
