mrlowndes

@sdetweil ok done. Now should I try bash -c "$(curl -sL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/sdetweil/MagicMirror_scripts/master/fixuppm2.sh)" again?

sdetweil

@mrlowndes yes

mrlowndes

@sdetweil same result:

@mrlowndes ok, time to get crazy , kill all npm stuff

/cd ~
sudo apt-get purge -y npm 
sudo rm -rf .npm
sudo apt-get install -y npm 
cd MagicMirror
rm -rf node_modules
npm install

then do the fixuppm2 script again

mrlowndes

@sdetweil still nothing:

u are getting weird failures…

every time we have seen this, it is the SD card failing.

mrlowndes

hmm good question.

mrlowndes

@sdetweil should be fine its a SanDisk Ultra Plus 64GB U1 SDXC

mrlowndes

@sdetweil if it is the SD card, is it the kind of thing a deep format and reinstall of Raspbian will fix, or is the SD just terminally bad? Wen I reinstalled Raspbian the last time, I did just do a quick format on this card before flashing the image.
