-As Pi-hole (as the name suggests) is built specifically with the Raspberry Pi in mind (and I run it on there as well), the following steps assume an instance of Pi-hole on Raspbian Strech Lite, with no additional modifications so far. Piholestatus will be configured to run on the same Pi.

 First install the necessary packages via apt as Raspbian Lite does have neither git nor pip installed.
 
 ```bash
 sudo apt update
-sudo apt install git python-pip -y
+sudo apt install git python3-pip -y
 ```
 
 Now clone the repo, install the Python dependencies, and make sure to copy and adjust the example configuation file to match your setup.

 The example dashboard seen [at the top](#pi-hole-influx) uses the collected data and displays it in concise and sensible graphs and single stats. The dashboard can be imported into your Grafana instance from the `dashboard.json` file included in the repo, or by using ID `6603` to [import it from Grafana's Dashboard Directory](https://grafana.com/dashboards/6603).
