Installing on a Pi Zero
-
@sdetweil I agree but which OS should I use? The lite one?
-
@ebolisa full desktop
-
@sdetweil Thank you! Finally got it going. I had to change the SD card.
Now I can finally replace my P4 with the P0. The P4, along with the display, are causing heat related problems so, P0 to the rescue.
Just FYI, I cannot hide the cursor and
sudo apt-get install unclutter
didn’t help. -
@ebolisa in css/main.css body should have cursor:none
you are running chromium-browser, not electron, but should have been the same
-
@ebolisa pi0 doesnt have a lot of power, so beware running too much…
check swap space usage
free -m
to see if it needs to be made bigger
-
@sdetweil Yes, I set swap to 1024. It’s slow but it works.
Thanks again!! -
@sdetweil , I went through a fresh SD card install for a Pi Zero W. raspbian and then the raspberry.sh script via your github page. I believe everything completed without error.
However when Magic Mirror launches on reboot, I get a blank page indicating:
This site can’t be reached
localhost refused to connectAny idea what to do to troubleshoot?
-
@rushhour99 is this with extra modules or just the base?
can u show the output of
pm2 logs --lines=100
-
@sdetweil said in Installing on a Pi Zero:
pm2 logs --lines=100
This just the Magic Mirror base. I haven’t added any extra modules.
Unfortunately I cannot paste the pm2 logs output. When I try it gets caught in some sort of spam filter and won’t let me post.

@rushhour99 u can email to me… same userid on gmail
also attach /home/pi/install.log
