Could anyone share how to fix it?

I'm trying to install Fuchsia on a Khadas VIM3 board by following https://fuchsia.dev/fuchsia-src/development/hardware/khadas-vim3.

This may have been a temporary issue with the latest HEAD checkout at the time you attempted it. If you continue to experience this, the following message in your error log indicates that you may be trying to run the bootstrap script on a machine that already has a copy of the Fuchsia source tree:

That states that the project (integration) already exists in your local checkout and can't be automatically updated to the latest HEAD.

If you want to run bootstrap, ensure you aren't overwriting any previous checkouts on your machine. If you already have the source and you just need to update the configuration for VIM3, simply follow the instructions in the guide you linked to get the proper fx set command.
