@sdetweil umpf, yes I started the script but it doesn’t work. So it was a plan not a run :rolling_on_the_floor_laughing:

Seems there is an failure with sudo on my windows machine.

Do I need to run as admin for update GIT Bash as admin?

sdetweil

@bdream i don’t think it will run in the CYGWIN or MINW environments

you will have to do the manual install

see the instructions here https://github.com/MichMich/MagicMirror#manual-installation

this also requires sudo, to install nodejs
if you succeed, let me know what you did (step by step) and I will consider updating the installer

bdream

@sdetweil looks like a new workingplace :dizzy_face:
I will hang it on for the next time and mark your comment for further usage.
1st try to follow the manual installation instruction failed and need more investigatin and understanding on my side

$ curl -sL https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_10.x | sudo -E bash -
bash: sudo: command not found

sdetweil

@bdream CYGWIN and MINW don’t allow sudo operations, as they don’t control the machine directly

bdream

@sdetweil yeah, that is I don’t know what and how to do. And it sounds like a big lack of knowledge on my side…

sdetweil

@bdream try, this, may not work

curl -sL https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_10.x | bash -

bdream

@sdetweil it don’t work

$ curl -sL https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_10.x | bash -
