When running first_time_setup.sh
error: externally-managed-environment
× This environment is externally managed ╰─> To install Python packages system-wide, try apt install python3-xyz, where xyz is the package you are trying to install.
If you wish to install a non-Debian-packaged Python package,
create a virtual environment using python3 -m venv path/to/venv.
Then use path/to/venv/bin/python and path/to/venv/bin/pip. Make
sure you have python3-full installed.

note: If you believe this is a mistake, please contact your Python installation or OS distribution provider. You can override this, at the risk of breaking your Python installation or OS, by passing --break-system-packages. hint: See PEP 668 for the detailed specification. By default, the RVR SDK uses the UART on /dev/ttys0 to communicate with RVR. Do you have Serial Port enabled and Serial Shell disabled in Raspberry Pi Configuration?
Use nano or whatever you use to edit files, go to first-time-setup.sh, and then remove pip3 install --user -r requirements.txt and replace with pip3 install --user --break-system-packages -r requirements.txt.
This solved the same thing that happened to me.
I just realized, the answer was in your post!
