Hello,
I have a raspberry pi B+ and a PiTFT - Assembled 320x240 2.8" TFT resistive.
Os is: Linux raspberrypi 5.10.60+ #1449 Wed Aug 25 14:59:20 BST 2021 armv6l GNU/Linux
When I try to run the adafruit-pitft.py script, in interactive mode, at the end I get this error:
PITFT Checking init system...
Found systemd
/boot is mounted
PITFT System update
Updating apt indexes............
PITFT Apt failed to update indexes!
Is there anything I can do?
Thanks

If anyone is interested, I solved the issue manually running the command
sudo apt update
(that's what the .py script was doing).
The display is now running fine.

Yep, that fixed the issue for me too. Specifically, using your suggestion and then running the install script again, and voila!
Thank you!
