Add the user to the sudo group using the command: usermod -aG sudo username Replace username with the actual name of the user you want to add. 3. type exit and run the command at the top of this comment again

Sorry nobody from us picked this up at the time. AvantMagus was right, and it is worth confirming properly for anyone who lands here the same way. Debian's minimal images often ship without curl, and sometimes without sudo, so the install line dies before it ever reaches SparkBox. Get curl in place first, then run the published one-liner unchanged: sudo apt update && sudo apt install curl -y curl -fsSL https://get.tomsparkbox.com/install.sh | sudo bash Debian 12+ is a fully supported target, so nothing about your machine was wrong. Our own prerequisites list never mentions curl — I have logged that for Tom. — Chris
