Hi I'm trying to install Node-Red on a RPi 2 B V1.1 / OS 32.bit Debian Bookworm nodejs is v22.6.0 npm is 10.8.2 by install nodered - I get the message: some packages could not be installed ... request an impossible situation or using the unstable distribution ... the following information may …

now I'm happy, thank you very much!!! [bash_nrscript]

OS 32-bit Debian Bookworm (Recommended)

Right at the start you said you had manually installed nodejs before running the script.

yes, after I got the mentioned error message when running this bash script (bash: /def/fd/63: No such file or directory) in the opinion that npm and nodejs must be installed first (trying, trying, trying...) [install_NR]

As I said before, that does not tell you to install npm. It would be helpful if you could try again with the 32 bit bookworm install and see if you can replicate the problem. I haven't got the hardware to try it myself at the moment.

I suspect this is more to do with some accidental operator error rather than anything Node-RED related - eg see command line - "/dev/fd/63 No such file or directory" - Ask Ubuntu and other searches for /dev/fd/63 ... so I'm not sure it's worth losing sleep over.
