        @theaddies interesting, log says one of them got installed

        Unpacking chromium-browser (92.0.4515.98~buster-rpt2)

        note u had an extra w in the text on last message

        browswer
        pm2 setup for autostart having trouble…

        you do

        pm2 autostart
        and it gives you the command to execute to make that happen

        then it says it can’t find the systemd init system to update, after it just said that is the one to use…
        will have to research and debug

          Starting chromium browser now, have patience, it takes a minute
          
          

          The screen for the raspberry pi is blank. this output is from ssh.

          I just typed it again and now I get
          /usr/bin/chromium-broswer

          sorry about that.

            @theaddies screen black, yes, takes long time

            increase swap space helps some

            use Midori browser helps some more (have to install Midori, and set an env variable, see doc )

              @sdetweil The screen has been black for an hour. When i reboot, the first thing I see is the MagicMirror logo. That is different than before. Before it booted into the raspian desktop and then the magicmirror loaded. It did take a while. Now, as I said above, I see the MagicMirror logo it seems to be loading and then the screen goes blank. It does not come back. ssh works, but the keyboard and mouse on the pi itself will not wake it up.

              I did see the correct screen after I ran the command below, but I can’t do that now.

              DISPLAY=:0 npm start

                    @theaddies ok, I was able to reproduce the problem

                    after reboot do this

                    pm2 startup

                    it will return a command to execute

                    copy paste that command and hit enter

                    it worked for me to manually enter the command

                    i opened this issue in pm2
