1. Download timeout

The error is as follows:

curl -q -sSL --connect-timeout 10 --retry 3 --output /tmp/netdata-kickstart-yO2WoN/sha256sum.txt https://storage.googleapis.com/netdata-nightlies/sha256sums.txt curl: (56) TCP connection reset by peer
 FAILED  

[/tmp/netdata-kickstart-yO2WoN]# curl -q -sSL --connect-timeout 10 --retry 3 --output /tmp/netdata-kickstart-yO2WoN/netdata-latest.tar.gz https://storage.googleapis.com/netdata-nightlies/netdata-latest.tar.gz curl: (7) Failed connect to storage.googleapis.com:443; Operation now in progress
 FAILED  

grep: /tmp/netdata-kickstart-yO2WoN/sha256sum.txt: No such file or directory
 ABORTED  Tarball checksum validation failed. Stopping netdata installation and leaving tarball in /tmp/netdata-kickstart-yO2WoN

the reason:

Use the following command to install online due to the inability to connect to google to download files, resulting in an error

# make sure you run `bash` for your shell
bash

# install Netdata directly from GitHub source
bash <(curl -Ss https://my-netdata.io/kickstart.sh)

solve:

Use offline installation,
