maybe im a bit lost, but I tried your scripts for Debian and I get an error installing piaware only:
I also tried, out of a bit of confusion, this script too - it fails also.
output from the first link:

E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.
this is from a brand new install
opps didnt see this initially.
but I tried both prebuilt 64 bit pi os and Debian 11 And and they both still fail
sorry, Im still learning linux and only barely understand the differences - I believe the Bullseye desktop version of Pi is a Debian distro -
however, it keeps saying I have these broken packages.
I thought since the Pi OS was on bullseye so was this.
Oops.
I think I might delete this os and try your suggestion of dietpi with your script for that.
thanks for the help! It’s definitely a learning curve and I’m jumping distributions trying to find the right options!
STEP-2: Downloaded scripts are for current OS Bullseye. Replaced all occurrences of word bullseye by buster in the above two downloaded script files by following commands:
sudo sed -i 's/bullseye/buster/g' install-piaware.sh
sudo sed -i 's/bullseye/buster/g' install-dump1090-fa.sh
STEP-3: Ran the modified installation scripts
sudo bash install-piaware.sh
sudo bash install-dump1090-fa.sh
