Error message on getting examples

Thu Oct 22, 2015 2:21 pm

I'm trying to run the samples from Martin O'Hanlon's excellent tutorial.... when running the wget in the terminal to get the files, I get the following errors. Any suggestions are welcome...

I'm running the following command before this:
wget -O - http://www.raspberry.org/files/astro-pi-install.sh --no-check-certificate | bash

The HAT is installed correctly, as far as I know. I have run some of the sample programs successfully.
