Failed to create symbolic link #10

Hi there,

First of all, congrats for your script, it is very useful ;)

I found a problem regarding /usr/local/bin folder since your script throw the following error:

ln: failed to create symbolic link '/usr/local/bin/node': No such file or directory
ln: failed to create symbolic link '/usr/local/bin/npm': No such file or directory

I have a Raspberry B v1 (ARMv6l) and I checked that folder /usr/local/bin didn't exist.

Am I going to suffer any problems regarding this issue?

Hi Fernan, I think that'll be ok. It just failed to create these links, probably because the Raspberry B v1 uses a different folder for its binaries.

The script here is tailored for the Pi Zero but since you're on ARM v6 it should still work.

Let us know if you have any problems though, so other people can avoid running it on the older Pis.
