Any advice about how to get this installed? Thanks

Can you try installing again?

it looks like you should have tried ,
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade
prior to doing the client install. the install process reported the initial system errors and tried to correct them. i would try the update/upgrade. reboot. then try the client install. if i remember correctly prior to client install one should do the update/upgrade.

Thanks for diagnosis - that was the issue, I am not a linux guy. :grinning:

Just a rider to the above; openssl did not install either so:

sudo apt-get install openssl

Was needed and then particle-agent setup as the automatic run failed.

Having the same problem. Did update/upgrade but issue is still there

Is this also with the Raspbian Lite (no GUI) installation or the full installation?

I have used noobs and its happening on pi1 model b. Tried to install needed packages with rvm but with no luck

We’re still focusing on the Raspberry Pi 2 and 3 for the initial beta. There are some known issues for the Raspberry Pi 1 that you can see described in the forum.
