Interesting! Where did you get libatomic.so.1? Normally this is done with` apt install libatomic1`… Is there a `wget` option you can post to your github perhaps?

Hi Kurt. You can get it from [debian.org](http://debian.org)! Look at [GitHub - thorgrimjansrud/node.js-on-wago-device: How to install Node.js on Wago device](https://github.com/thorgrimjansrud/node.js-on-wago-device). I explained it there :).

Thanks! Was able to install Node-RED natively with this, very cool!

To install Node-RED on the host, once Node.JS is installed;

```auto
npm install -g --unsafe-perm node-red
node-red start

```

Note: most palette modules will install, however some that depend on Python3 and will not install (like node-red-contrib-modbus).
