Have trouble downloading the drivers for 5 inch display

When I use the terminal program on the raspberry it says fatal error when cloning into the goodtft or Elecrow-keen sites. Please can you advise me as to what I should do.

sudo rm -rf LCD-show
git clone https://github.com/goodtft/LCD-show.git
chmod -R 755 LCD-show
cd LCD-show/
sudo ./LCD5-show

  • Hello, please try to install the drive by offline method:

    Step 1: Download 'LCD-show.tar.gz', and copy it to the 'boot' directory of SD card(after flashing Raspberry Pi OS image)

    This is an embed external element. It can be deleted using the delete key or the backspace key. To view the full element, press the preview button below.
    File
    LCD-show.tar.gz
    4.45 MB

    Step 2: Run the following command to unzip and install the driver

    cd /boot
    sudo tar zxvf LCD-show.tar.gz
    cd LCD-show/
    sudo ./LCD5-show
    

    Step 3: After completing the above steps, rebot the Raspberry Pi.

  • Thanks a lot!
