I just double-checked the official SteamDeckHomebrew GitHub repository and community documentation to verify.
The command I gave you is indeed correct and officially supported. However, the developers actually maintain two different links that do the exact same thing, which sometimes causes confusion.
If the first one gave you any trouble, here are both of the officially verified commands to install the pre-release version. You can use either one:
Option 1 (The Decky-Installer link):
Bash
curl -L https://github.com/SteamDeckHomebrew/decky-installer/releases/latest/download/
install_prerelease.sh | shOption 2 (The Raw GitHub link):
Bash
curl -L https://github.com/SteamDeckHomebrew/decky-loader/raw/main/dist/install_prerelease.sh | shWhy it might fail
If you are still getting a "Not found" error or if the command just hangs, it is almost always caused by one of two things:
-
Typo in the command: Make sure you are copying and pasting the entire line above, including the
curl -Lat the beginning and the| shat the very end. -
Missing password: Decky requires you to have a system admin password set before it can install. If you haven't created one yet on this machine, you have to run
passwdin your terminal first, type a new password twice, and then run the Decky command.
