Hi @ngandhy,

Try installing the native Linux Arm64 binary from our releases.

If you run curl -fsSL https://gh.io/copilot-install | bash, it will install the correct binary for your OS/architecture automatically!

@RyanHecht - appreciate the help. Sadly I still get the same error (as seen below). Any other ideas by chance?

$ curl -fsSL https://gh.io/copilot-install | bash
