    @geo open an ssh session from your pc to pi.

    or slow way, open a browser on pi, and terminal window, and copy. paste that way

        @geo you don’t install the scripts… u execute one line

        to install you copy/paste this line

        bash -c "$(curl -sL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/sdetweil/MagicMirror_scripts/master/raspberry.sh)"
        

        which will execute the install process

                  @geo I don’t understand.

                  to start mm after install, you navigate to the MagicMirror folder and execute npm start

                  cd ~/MagicMirror
                  npm start

                    @geo >would still like to know why the original command did not work.

                    because u copied some old instructions.
                    the install scripts were removed 2 releases ago, because they require constant updating, which the project felt was not in the core mission of MagicMirror.

                    I have taken over maintenance and updates for the scripts, and this is mentioned on the project GitHub site, as alternative install methods
                    see after

                      hi thx for that.
                      i now have mm installed as per your instructions i can open the config and everything else but still cant get the mm display.you asked to see the install log but permission was denied.
                      i am finding it difficult to understand why matters seem more complicated which makes everything more daunting especially after having an up and running mm which was ruined by me installing out of date info.
                      i am at a loss as to what to do next other than to sell everything.
                      regards,
                      geo
