Launching application. -
Well, it certainly shows that MM is launching and running. There are several black screen topics that you can look through. Do a forum search for black screen. Otherwise, perhaps someone else will chime in that had the same problem. I suspect that electron may be at fault or that your dependencies failed to install properly

i just ran the auto one and it didnt error at all i did a search and tried a few things and no dice
-
there is a bug in the electron browser that causes the black screen.
i did
npm remove electron
npm install electron@1.7.9and it works fine now…
someone posted another solution to issue 1243

@sdetweil said in Raspberry 2 clean install showing as black screen:
npm remove electron
npm install electron@1.7.9I will have to try that. Thank you! My fix had been to install another web browser and use that. Electron’s built-in browser seemed to always show a black screen.
