updated installer script available for testing

bhepler

@sdetweil - I will be running your script on a fresh Raspberry Pi 4 1GB w/Buster desktop in a couple minutes. I’ll report back. Thank you for your hard work.

Updated to add: Well, it took a couple days because I didn’t have an microHDMI to HDMI adapter. But once I picked one up, I was able to get onto the Pi. The installation script worked first time with no issues. Great job!

@sdetweil - Sorry, I thought the update to my post covered it. The installer worked like a charm. Thanks again for your hard work!

and ran into below error

while searching on google came across this post. Now how do I proceed?

How do I uninstall previous version? and install this?

What kind of pi are u using?

I don’t have to delete/uninstall previous one?
