Command errored out with exit status 1

Hi, Sorry - I have next to no idea what I'm doing.

I've attempted to install this on a Linux Virtual Machine. Is that possible?
I got to this point...

Do you have a C compiler installed? It's necessary to build the cryptography library used by solariot.

I can't find any mention of installing system packages in the official documentation, but Docker is apparently installed. You could attempt to run solariot via the Docker container.

Do you have a C compiler installed?

Not unless it was installed along with the HAOS for Virtual Machine.
I have tried searching and reading up - but cannot find anything that looks suitable

You could attempt to run solariot via the Docker container.

I'm not sure how to go about this

Try doing the same in a fresh python virtual environment. For example:

python3 -m venv solariot-venv
cd solariot-venv
source bin/activate
git clone https://github.com/meltaxa/solariot.git
cd solariot
pip install --upgrade -r requirements.txt

I was able to do the above without error (on Python 3.8).

As mentioned, Docker is also another way to run Solariot. You'll need to install Docker Desktop: https://www.docker.com/products/docker-desktop. Follow the instructions under the Docker heading in the readme.

Both of these options are beyond my full understanding.
Should I be running these commands through ssh? Some other method?
