xcarve-server install on virgin install of raspian lite

[hjagnew]

I was having a hard time getting the xcarve-server instructions to work. Here are the steps I took to get xcarve-server to run on a virgin install of raspian lite. Thanks to Todd Treece for all of the help. (Especially for pointing out this info... https://docs.npmjs.com/getting-started/fixing-npm-permissions)

On my mac...
dd if=./2016-09-23-raspbian-jessie-lite.img of=/dev/rdiskX bs=1m

Move SD card over to RPi3

SSH to RPi3 as pi user

curl -sL https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_4.x | sudo -E bash -
sudo apt-get install -y nodejs
mkdir /.npm-global
npm config set prefix '/home/pi/.npm-global'
export PATH=/.npm-global/bin:$PATH
echo "export PATH=~/.npm-global/bin:$PATH" >> ~/.profile
npm install -g xcarve-server
xcarve-server start
