Particle Installation Not Starting on Pi Zero W

Hello fellow Particle members,

Hope you are well,

I have recently managed to get hold of the Raspberry Pi Zero W and I thought I would try to setup the Particle Agent as it is not an optimal device for IoT applications. However, when I type in the ’ bash <( curl -sL https://particle.io/install-pi )’ command to install the system, nothing happens. Quite literally, I press enter and I go to the next line with no installation. I should mention I am running Raspbian Lite, which I wouldnt expect to be an issue. Looking for any solutions, or anyone with the same issue or experience?

Thank you,

Sam

Pasting the error messages on the terminal might help us in understanding the issue.

What if you manually download the script and run it?

curl -LO https://particle.io/install-pi 
chmod +x install-pi
./install-pi
