I want to install Ubuntu Mate on the latest version of Armbian. I am using Armbian since the latest version has support for the 7" touchscreen. I have never installed a GUI desktop, so any help would be appreciated.
wget -q -O - https://github.com/longsleep/build-pine64-image/raw/master/simpleimage/platform-scripts/install_desktop.sh | sudo /bin/bash

The script is here on Github. You should be able to download and run the script in one fell swoop like so:
Code:wget -q -O - https://github.com/longsleep/build-pine64-image/raw/master/simpleimage/platform-scripts/install_desktop.sh | sudo /bin/bash
Usage: /bin/bash <mate|i3>
sudo -i
cd ~
wget https://github.com/longsleep/build-pine64-image/raw/master/simpleimage/platform-scripts/install_desktop.sh
chmod +x install_desktop.sh
./install_desktop.sh mate

Instead do
Code:sudo -i
cd ~
wget https://github.com/longsleep/build-pine64-image/raw/master/simpleimage/platform-scripts/install_desktop.sh
chmod +x install_desktop.sh
./install_desktop.sh mate
