Resurrecting my mirror!
-
@sdetweil Thank you. I’ll start that process over the next day or two. Do you think it’s worth backing up? I can copy and paste the important bits I’ll need again and just start fully from scratch. It wouldn’t kill me to refresh my memory on how this all works again - it’s been quite a while. I’ll still back up of course, just in case but am tempted to just start over again.
I’ll pop the camera out of the case and see what version it is. It’s the OE Raspberry Pi camera, not sure what version though.
Happy new year!

That install script was great, thanks so much. Up and running on a fresh SD card. Now to reinstall the modules I had (I did back up the previous MM install but will start from scratch on the modules as well to relearn what I need to relearn.

@Macboy cool.
restore will put it back like it was. just doing the manual grunt work, git clone, npm install
config is unchanged

I was rereading some of my old posts on this forum and recalled the issue I was having with the Mirror and the camera seeming to not work based on something I was messing up in the process. I think that’s about where it was left off. I’m going to work it back up slowly, comparing the old with the new (I’ve got a few spare Pis and monitors around so it’s easy for me to compare side by side as I go).
