    Just got mine and getting this error. Would appreciate any support you nerds can give me because I don’t have a Github account:

    Using adb at ./platform-tools/adb Force a switch into the debug mode to enable ADB /Applications/release/install-common.sh: line 20: ./serial-macos-latest/serial: Bad CPU type in executable

    Edit: Installed via Linux, here’s what the UI looks like

    There’s now a green line going across the top of the display and apparently if it detects any problems the line will turn red. Still no idea how I get that info back to the EFF though.

      I think it needs special hardware to run on:

      It is developed to run on an Orbic mobile hotspot (Amazon, Ebay) which is available for $20 or less at the time of this writing.

        It’s the other way around, an Apple Silicon Mac would be able to run an intel binary through Rosetta (I think there’s almost no exceptions at this point). It’s intel macs that can’t run Arm specific binaries.

      From what’s written here, it appears you have an Intel Mac and the thing has only ARM Mac executable, or the other way around.

        It didn’t mention anything about the CPU in the install instructions…

        I guess I’ll give it a try on my Linux machine.

        Edit: Linux install was successful
