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

        Delete MM folder or rename it and run this install script from @sdetweil

              Use the below raspberry imager and do a fresh install of raspbian and then try the installer from Sam.

                  So not the Raspberry Pi OS (32-bit), but the Raspberry Pi OS Full (32-bit)? ,
                  I’ll try that thank you, last time I used the first one.

                  I’ll be back :), hopefully with good news.

                      Hmm still no good news.
                      For some reason when I make the image USB with the Full image it isn’t bootable.
                      I tried it with three different USB sticks and wrote the sticks from two different pc’s, but when I try booting/installing from this USB it won’t start. It just gives me the message no bootable device.

                      When I switch to the old USB (with the Raspberry Pi OS (32-bit), it works immediately.
                      Any ideas what I’m doing wrong?
