It doesn't even ask for the type of config or verbosity, just shows that message. I tried to modify that file, but it doesn't exist in my filesystem.

I'm a bit lost, not sure if it's an issue with my PC or with the script.

Step 1: Run the script
Step 2: Select 'Yes' to Install
Step 3: Error

Paste the full error output (if available).
