    Hey guys,

    Trying an install on RPI Zero 2 W, Bullseye 32 Bit
    printenv does show FORCE_INSTALL=1 as set

    Doesnt seem to actually force the install? What am I missing here?

    --silent

      Hi @UltimateUser,

      I'm sorry you're running into this issue forcing the install on your Pi Zero 2 W.

      It looks like there's a bug with the newer FORCE_INSTALL method that's preventing the install here. I've created a GitHub issue to look into this. It looks like the issue is the environment variable isn't set due to the way we're executing the script (by piping the script into a new bash instance) and because the environment variable isn't set when get-tinypilot.sh runs install.

      As a work around, could you download the get-tinypilot.sh script on your Pi Zero with the following command:

      wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/tiny-pilot/tinypilot/master/get-tinypilot.sh && \ 
  chmod +x get-tinypilot.sh

      Edit the following lines (using nano get-tinypilot.sh)

      sudo \
  TMPDIR="${TMPDIR}" \
  ./install

      To:

      sudo \
  TMPDIR="${TMPDIR}" \
  FORCE_INSTALL=1 ./install

      And then run it with ./get-tinypilot.sh. That should force the install in this situation.

      I hope that helps! Please let me know if you have any questions.
