@bumrocks >Here is the full code as it is returned to me…
u are not supposed to SEE the code of the script… u just execute it
bash -c "… " means execute whatever is downloaded…
you just copy/paste that one line from my github repo and its all done
bash -c "$(curl -sL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/sdetweil/MagicMirror_scripts/master/raspberry.sh)"technically, the project (MagicMirror) says that it is ONLY supported on armv7l devices (pi 3 and 4).
my script allows you to install anyhow (if u want to try it anyhow)…
(I haven’t found anything it won’t run on, so its safe bet)
i didn’t update the message , but will correct it…
| edit: I have pushed the change for the run on 2/3/4 and supported on 2/3/4) -
@bumrocks the instructions on my repo say
to execute the install script, cut/paste this line into the terminal window on your device (I can't say PI, cause it works in a lot of other places too) -
@sdetweil , I am aware of your instructions. I promise I read them. I have not tried to guess or shortcut your help. If you go back to the 11th post here…

…you can see where I stated what I did and what problems I ran into. Maybe those issues had something to do with something else I had done…Now that I have turned off and booted the Pi again things are different. I will try the script again here in a minute and report back if it went as it is supposed to…

yes, u are looking at the code for some reason, if you cut/paste the entire line, you will not see the installer code, but the results of it executing…
don’t retype it…

@sdetweil , oh crap…I was not typing anything. I was copying and pasting but being my noobness in terminal is shining through I was only copying and pasting from within the quotes. I think before that I had copied…
-c "$(curl -sL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/sdetweil/MagicMirror_scripts/master/raspberry.sh)"…without the “bash” and therefore got an error code…I then guessed that I should try the code within the quotes facepalm My bad!
I will come back and let you know if I have outsmarted myself again or succeded in progressing, lol!

@bumrocks Easy mistake…
