Just got mine and getting this error. Would appreciate any support you nerds can give me because I don't have a Github account:

Using adb at ./platform-tools/adb Force a switch into the debug mode to enable ADB /Applications/release/install-common.sh: line 20: ./serial-macos-latest/serial: Bad CPU type in executable

Edit: Installed via Linux, here's what the UI looks like

collapsed inline media

There's now a green line going across the top of the display and apparently if it detects any problems the line will turn red. Still no idea how I get that info back to the EFF though.

From what's written here, it appears you have an Intel Mac and the thing has only ARM Mac executable, or the other way around.

It didn't mention anything about the CPU in the install instructions...

I guess I'll give it a try on my Linux machine.

Edit: Linux install was successful

Try locating the binary that crashes with the "Bad CPU type" exception and run the file command on it. It will show you which architecture the binary was built for.

Edit: Linux install was successful

That's good to hear
