Hi @tobytripp,
Sorry for the delays in responding. It seems like mid-August caught up with Jon and me.
As far as I can tell, you’re doing everything right. The error that you’re getting should have been a good hint, but I can not reproduce it. I created an issue to track it.
Could you try installing nerves_bootstrap like this and let me know if it works?
mix archive.install github nerves-project/nerves_bootstrap branch support-nerves-1.8-and-later
# If successful, try this
mix nerves.new test_project # answer y to the question
cd test_project
export MIX_TARGET=rpi0
mix deps.get
mix firmware
You won’t be able to use Nerves versions before v1.8.0, but that version is over a year old now.
Thanks for your patience with what should have been an easy step.
