PI Zero module issues for this beginner

wagon40

can you send me the direct script to place in the command line to load your script? I have tried a few bash $( bala bal bal) and im not getting much luck.

I tried to follow this https://forum.magicmirror.builders/topic/9386/installing-on-a-pi-zero/72
but of course it wont start. screen goes to sleep and it only starts for a minute then goes to desktop.
I installed buster with desktop.

@wagon40 from the page I referenced

bash -c "$(curl -sL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/sdetweil/MagicMirror_scripts/master/raspberry.sh)"

you can do that over ssh, or on the pi monitor terminal session

it will prompt you about autostart with pm2 and turning off screensaver

@sdetweil
all was going well until the dependencies stopped it. tired to send the code using </> or :: but it blanks out the submit button?

@wagon40

npm WARN grunt-stylelint@0.13.0 requires a peer of stylelint@^12.0.0 but none is installed. You must install peer dependencies yourself.

@wagon40 hm… I don’t see that on my pi 0…

And electron is optional, so there should be no need for chrome driver

Same issue I had with the other download. any suggestion?

@wagon40 I will have to look. It will be a couple hours. Have grandson now

Tried to npm start and it states that i dont have a config.js. went to the desktop and i can navigate to the magicmirror file and open the config sample. not sure why it isnt loading? did a reboot and it is not starting MM.

sdetweil

@wagon40 because the install didn’t finish… copy config.js.sample to config.js

can u show me the ~/install.log?

other things might fail too… as it didn’t complete the install steps…

i am trying again right now on my pi 0, but on jessie (as thats the OS level I have installed there at the moment)

wagon40

nothing for install.log. tried a few different ways. I was able to make a copy but just a black screen on npm start up. not sure what to do.
