Error on Pi Zero #12

I am using raspberry pi zero w and installed raspbian via noobs.

I run the bash install.sh and got an error of "Cannot run hotword demo on Pi zero!"

The official Assistant package only works on Pi 2's and 3's which have an ARM7 CPU. The Zero W has an ARM6 CPU, so the hotword detection ("OK Google" functionality) won't work on it. I would suggest trying this repository instead, an alternative version someone made that should work on Pi Zeros. I'll also add a warning to the README that this repository will only work for ARM7 devices.
