Redirecting...

  e.g: If you are seeing this message on a fresh install, you can run:
         'curl -sSL https://install.pi-hole.net | PIHOLE_SKIP_OS_CHECK=true sudo -E bash'

       If you are seeing this message after having run pihole -up:
         'PIHOLE_SKIP_OS_CHECK=true sudo -E pihole -r'
       (In this case, your previous run of pihole -up will have already updated the local repository)

  If that is the case, you can feel free to ask the community on Discourse with the Community Help category:

Details about my system:
LeMaker BananaPi Pro, 1GB RAM, GB NIC, A20 soc.

What I have changed since installing Pi-hole:
n/a; trying to install it for the first time.

Note: I seem to be able to bypass it by using 'curl -sSL https://install.pi-hole.net | PIHOLE_SKIP_OS_CHECK=true sudo -E bash', but it seems unexpected behaviour to me.

It's not.
