what I just did is start with clean Raspbian Stretch install (I used minimal to test)

- set up ssh, change hostname, password, set overclock as required.
- run `sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get -y dist-upgrade`
- reboot
- run our bash install/upgrade script from the docs

That gets me node 8.11.4 and npm 5.6.0 and Node-RED with serialport.  
Then

- `cd ~/.node-red && npm i node-red-node-arduino`
- `node-red-stop && node-red-star`t

And then I have both serial and arduino nodes.
