Steam Deck won't install Emudeck after a Factory Reset

I have been trying so hard to get emudeck to install onto my deck. I follow the guides and download the installer from their website but it just doesn't work. I recently had to factory reset my device after it unexpectedly went into emergency mode. It's been an annoying process of getting my deck back to how I had it but I'm nearly there. I love emudeck but for some reason it will not install. I've tried all sorts of fixes and nothing works. I've heard it's more than likely a network issue so I've tried different networks, changing the DNS server, switching to 2.4ghz wifi, using a VPN, but nothing works. Whenever I open the installer on my desktop it'll simply close konsole after a few seconds. I've tried to copy the command and paste it into the installer myself and that just gives me a long error message that I cannot decipher. I've tried everything I can find online. Nothing works for me. I recently read an older steam community post that mentioned that github wasn't working after a factory reset and I'm beginning to think that the issue might be related to that. Does anyone have any ideas? I'm running the stable channel of the current steam OS.

Just tried that and it had no effect on the installation.

You can try to do it by hand

The desktop file just downloads the app image and move it to applications

Exec=sh -c 'curl -L https://raw.githubusercontent.com/dragoonDorise/EmuDeck/main/install.sh | bash'

https://raw.githubusercontent.com/dragoonDorise/EmuDeck/main/install.sh

chmod +x ~/Applications/EmuDeck.AppImage ~/Applications/EmuDeck.AppImage

https://github.com/EmuDeck/emudeck-electron/releases

https://github.com/EmuDeck/emudeck-electron/releases/download/v2.1.4/EmuDeck-2.1.4.AppImage

When trying the chmod command I get a Bus error (core dumped)

How is that possible? chmod only change the permissions of the file.

Did you download the EmuDeck.AppImage and move it to /home/deck/Applications/EmuDeck.AppImage ??

yes the Emudeck.AppImage file is in the applications folder. When I paste... chmod +x ~/Applications/EmuDeck.AppImage
~/Applications/EmuDeck.AppImage

...in the terminal it pauses for a few seconds and then says Bus error (core dumped). I'm very sorry if I'm screwing something up I am not super familiar with Linux

I think I figured it out. Damn it Valve.

How did you wipe your steam deck? They change how the deck becomes wiped. I would flash the recovery image onto a sdcard.

Triggering a Factory Reset will now install a clean version of the OS in addition to deleting user data if the OS image has been modified.

Oof this is frustrating. I had to factory reset my deck as sort of a last resort when it unexpectedly went into emergency mode. I tried booting into an older version of the OS but that didn't work. The last resort was to factory reset the deck while in emergency mode. So you would suggest adding the recovery image to my sd card? What would this do? Is it looking like I'm going to have to reimage my deck again to get this to work?

Yea. Apparently, the old behavior isnt a clean wipe....... When chmod screws up, the OS system might be bork near beyond repair. Gotta reinstall

Get the recovery image and flash it to your sd card. Re wipe your deck with the sd card. The factory reset may not worked. I would not recommend usb drives because they are strangely slow.
