      First magic mirror so bear with me. After having much trouble with the automatic installer

      bash -c "$(curl -sL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/MichMich/MagicMirror/master/installers/raspberry.sh)"
      

      I switched to the manual install method found on the MM2 git repo. During install I get the electron error stating there’s no version for arm6l. To remedy I ran

      npm install --arch=armv7l electron@2.0.0
      

      Which successfully installed electron. I then reran npm install inside the ~/MagicMirror folder. I got the Magic mirror installed successfully message and no errors, but MagicMirror will not run after npm start.
      If I try sh run-start.sh I get run-start.sh: 7: run-start.sh: electron: not found

      Any help would be appreciated, seems no tutorial I’ve found handles the electron not supporting armv6l device error.

      Device: Raspi 3 B+
      OS: Raspbian Stretch 2019-04-08
      Node: 10.18.0
      npm: 6.13.4

        @voxum armv6 is falling out of favor…

        rename the MagicMirror folder out of the way, or delete it

        use my install script…
        see https://forum.magicmirror.builders/topic/10171/anyone-want-to-try-updated-installer
        (it will be in the next release)

        it will setup for serveronly and launch chrome to be the browser instead of electron
