Tutorial 1 step 3

I encountered the highlighted issue about compiling NEURON mechanisms. There is by default no mechanisms folder by default in components, and after creating one and trying the suggested fix 'nrnivmodl modfiles' from /.../mechanisms, it fails. Creating a modfiles folder lets'nrnivmodl modfiles' run, but the sim_ch01/config.simulation.json file does not get created and I cannot move past step 3.
For reference I am using Python 3.8.5, neuron 8.0.0.
I would assume that there is trouble with the path for neuron like the warning suggests in step 3, but I can import neuron in Jupyter. Does bmtk need to be downloaded in a certain location? If I knew what mechanisms were required, could I manually make the folder and then run nrnivmodl modfiles (or does that line normally populate the folder)?
I tried to use the docker setup as well. It still fails on step 3, but for a different reason. I may also try with Python 3.7 in case it has not been tested with later versions.
I have a similar problem. Have you sloved it?
