            @Nik Hi, I had almost same problem, I solved it by installing nodejs and electron first before MM
            used those links http://thisdavej.com/beginners-guide-to-installing-node-js-on-a-raspberry-pi/ - in 3/4 of page
            and for electron I think I used this https://github.com/electron/electron-quick-start dont remember… sorry :/

              Two questions: What version of the Raspberry Pi are you running and are you using the Raspian Lite version?

                said in Unable to install dependencies!:

                Run apt-get install nodejs (as root) to install Node.js v6.x and npm

                What say the command

                dpkg -L nodejs
                I understand the nodejs is not necesary install manually, the script do it for you.

                Try, uninstall the nodejs from the repository and run again the bash installer.

                  Update received same error running the bash script:
                  curl -sL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/MichMich/MagicMirror/master/installers/raspberry.sh | bash

                  on Raspberry pi 3.0 -B. Installed Raspbian Jesse using NOOBS.

                  Ran the script again and the response told me NodeJs was installed, “Magic mirror is already installed”
                  I believe this is more an unintended response of the actual bug. NodeJS was already installed correctly?

                  Anyway,

                  navigated into the folder MagicMirror:
                  npm start -> electron not installed fail.
                  npm install -> npm start

                  Bingo, we are running. No need to download any packages seperately.
