    Before I decide to buy a Raspberry pi I want to preview it on my old computer.
    I installed Raspberry pi (desktop version from homepage of Raspberry).
    Everything was fine, When I install nodejs from apt source package, it doesn’t have alias (syntax for npm). Then I followed others topic, they said check uname -a and go to nodejs homepage to download a compatible version.

    Here is my $uname -a Linux raspberry 4.9.0-8-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 4.9.130-2 (2018-10-27) x86_64 GNU/Linux
    Then I go to node homepage and download a version of Linux Binaries (ARM) V6 unpacked and copy all of them to /usr/local/ and checked it with command node -v &npm -v. I got this error messages /lib/ld-linux-armhf.so.3: No such file or directory.

    I thought that was my computer is not compatible but when I tried it on virtualbox I still got same problem.
    I need your help. Thanks.

      My opinion

      Install ubuntu on your old computer. I have several old PC laptops running ubuntu and MM. MM runs perfectly.

        Well as far as I can see you installed/copied the ARM version of nodejs on a amd64 system.
        I guess that does not work.
        I’d rather try the Linux x64 binaries.

          However, I have the strong feeling that the ~30€ for a Pi 3b might be well invested to save from further trouble. :-)
          Or you use ubuntu in a VM as @Mykle1 suggested

            I don’t use VM. My machines are wiped clean and only ubuntu 16.04LTS is installed prior to MM
