MM2 my first try

[Mark Fleming]

I too had the same problem with my attempt at installing the MM program. I found this on
https://www.w3schools.com/nodejs/nodejs_raspberrypi.asp. i used it as a long shot as i was running out of things to try. it worked and i now have MM up and running. I am using the AIY project file as install on raspberry pi 2.

i tried the manual installation
first i install the node .js, no trouble, intall seems OK
but when i began " npm install && npm start", troubles appear :

@seramik - Warnings are just that: warnings. I usually ignore them and concentrate on errors. Errors will prevent your mirror from working.

This, OTOH, is important:

WARNING! Could not find config file. Please create one. Starting with default configuration.

To fix this, you need to copy the included sample configuration file to its final destination. This will become your working configuration file and what you will edit as you add modules.

cd ~/MagicMirror/config
cp config.js.sample config.js

So now when you want to change the behavior of your mirror, you will edit the config.js file.

it is OK for the config file, i’ve got the old one
