    @DarkV show me the ~/MagicMirror/installers/upgrade.log

    looks like this is a hybrid os… 64 bit kernel and 32 bit runtime… and the wrong architecture node was installed

    so, again do this,

    hash -r 
    sudo apt-get remove nodejs npm -y
    hash -r
    node -v
    

    should get not found
    then do

    which node
    

    show the results, nothing means not found
    if there is a result do
    node -v

            @DarkV ok,

            two more commands for info before running

            lsb_release -a
            file /bin/bash
            

            NOW try to run my upgrade script… note that it will NOT install node in test mode…

            so you have to use the second link that adds the apply parm

                @DarkV man this is a pain

                one more try

                sudo apt-get remove nodejs npm -y
                hash -r
                which node
                which n
                

                if which n response with empty then do

                sudo apt-get install n 
                

                once n responds then

                sudo n 20.8.0	--arch armv7l
                hash -r 
                node -v 
                

                should say V20.8.0

                i notice that I didn’t copy this little part from the install script…

                  @DarkV never mind that won’t work… need node and npm to install n… grr…

                  ok, only way out is to redo the sd card
                  backup your MM
                  see https://github.com/sdetweil/MagicMirror-backup-restore

                  copy the backup folder MM_backup off the sd card (it can save to github too)

                  reflash the sd card with latest os
                  boot, no updates,
                  run install script to install MM
                  verify it runs
                  restore your config using my restore script (can restore directly from github too)

                  test

                  sorry, the nodejs guys made a mess of this as they changed the node install process too… and it doesn’t work.

                    @sdetweil All is OK. I am so grateful for all of your assistance. In my opinion, what you performed was alchemy or witchcraft. I’ve been attempting to identify the problem and have made multiple unsuccessful attempts. An old picture I had from a few months ago was my saviour. My wife was becoming tired of my futile attempts at updating.
                    You have brought me happiness and protected me from madness. That’s a significant victory.Screenshot 2023-10-31 135119.png

                      @DarkV before you jump off the bridge! try this

                      sudo apt-get remove nodejs npm -y
                      hash -r
                      

                      make sure gone
                      which node

                      then 
                      

                      sudo apt-get install nodejs:armv7l
                      node -v
