Suggested correction to FAQ #1693

Closed makocc closed 3 months ago

Hello. I was following the directions in the FAQ for re-installing the signal K server and ran into an issue. The first part of the FAQ, "Something's wrong, I need to reinstall / reset my system", sates to reinstall, use the command:
npm install -g signalk-server which kept giving me permission errors at the end. I believe it should be done as a sudo command and should read: sudo npm install -g signalk-server It is a simple fix, but for those of us just learning, it can cause issues if you don't know any better.

Thanks for your time in creating and maintaining this great product. Chad

I did not realize that I am able to edit and make the correction myself. I just did that. If there is any issue with my change, please feel free to change it back.

Thanks, Chad
