Raspberry Pi Zero W Warning
---------------------------
Node.js applications like Asterisk/FreePBX, Node-RED and Sugarizer won't work on Raspberry Pi Zero W (ARMv6) if you installed Node.js while on RPi 3, 3 B+ (ARMv7) or RPi 4 (ARMv8).
UPDATE: The Zero 2 W released 2021-10-28 is 64-bit (ARMv7) so may or may not have such serious problems...
On the original Raspberry Pi Zero W (ARMv6) however: Node.js applications like Internet Archive, JupyterHub, Node-RED, PBX (Asterisk/FreePBX) and Sugarizer won't work — if you installed Node.js while on Raspberry Pi 3, 3 B+ (ARMv7) or Raspberry Pi 4 (ARMv8).
If necessary, run `sudo apt purge nodejs npm` then `sudo rm /etc/apt/sources.list.d/nodesource.list` then `sudo apt update` and then attempt to [install Node.js](https://github.com/iiab/iiab/blob/master/roles/nodejs/tasks/install.yml) _on the Raspberry Pi Zero W itself_ (`cd /opt/iiab/iiab` then `sudo ./runrole --reinstall nodejs`).
Earlier, some preferred installing the tar file version mentioned at [#2082](https://github.com/iiab/iiab/issues/2082#issuecomment-569344617) — and if so, consider a more recent version like https://nodejs.org/dist/latest-v18.x/

You'll (likely) also then need to run: `sudo apt install npm`
Either way, you'll (likely) then also need to run: `sudo apt install npm`
Whatever versions of Node.js and npm you install, make sure `/etc/iiab/iiab_state.yml` contains the line `nodejs_installed: True` (add it if nec!) Finally, proceed to install Asterisk/FreePBX, Node-RED ([Raspberry Pi notes](https://nodered.org/docs/hardware/raspberrypi#swapping-sd-cards)) and/or Sugarizer: [#1799](https://github.com/iiab/iiab/issues/1799)
