MMM Awesome Alexa installing snowboy.

@Ameyalgudkar there is a multi-step procedure in the AwesomeAlexa README.md file for install, you have to follow that

[Ameyalgudkar]

@sdetweil I did follow all the steps, and now I am getting stuck at this npm install step for installing dependencies. namely “snowboy” which is required for the hotword recognition.

[sdetweil]

@Ameyalgudkar these steps, right?

@sdetweil yes those steps.
The one I am referring to is 4th to last.

[sdetweil]

@Ameyalgudkar no idea if it will work

[Ameyalgudkar]

@sdetweil If you could make a copy of your image file or if you have it saved on your disk maybe?
could you upload it to google cloud or something?
