      Thanks @sdetweil , after a couple of reboots this is now working as expected. Not sure what the issue was, I will have to keep an eye on it. Thanks for the link on swap space, I will also look in that direction if I have any more of the same issues.

              @jorgnyg Yea guess so. Installation fails on rpi zero. So I deleted the electron folder from node_modules, and ran npm install --arch=armv7l electron@3.0.13

                  @sdetweil note that we made electron optional. There is no armv6l at node 10
                  So we will run in split mode use chromium

                      @jorgnyg the run-start.sh script now handles this problem and launches chromium instead of electron to connect to mm in serveronly mode

                          Hi - firstly thanks for putting together this installer!

                          I am running Raspbian on RP3b+ as a fresh install using the command

                          curl -sL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/sdetweil/MagicMirror_scripts/master/raspberry.sh | bash

                          Installer indicated successful install of MagicMirror.

                          Using SSH DISPLAY=:0 npm start gives the following error:

                            @jthirasilpa seems like you are running in console mode, instead of graphical mode.

                            Mm requires the full desktop.

                                    Thank you for this script, it has worked better than the original one for me. But I still really unlucky and have an issue.

                                    Here it is :

                                    Any idea please? Honnestly I have spent so much time on this project, all my past weekend and some hours in the week. I tried many things, with several tutorials, raspian stretch, buster… I’m a little desperate, but I’m not giving up!

                                    Thanks

                                      @Neebotol looks like npm is not able to run after the node upgrade…

                                      do this

                                      rm -rf MagicMirror
npm clean cache

                                      then start the installer script again
