The amp install script is broken for installing box86/box64 on 24.04

You’d be better to install these repos and install the generic builds from them:

Does the original script call for both box86 and box64 to be installed?

Yes, but doesn’t install the right deps for 24.04, and assumes a RPi install

Gave up trying to get it to work on 24.04. Just downgraded to 22.04 and works fine now. Thanks Greelan.

Eek. It was probably only a couple of newer packages for SteamCMD that I could have told you
