Failed to install dependencies, while trying to install MM2

[swvalenti]

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

[sdetweil]

@MaikH1 delete the MagicMirror folder and run the installation script from here
https://github.com/sdetweil/MagicMirror_scripts

[MaikH1]

Thanks for the help, really appreciate it.

That’s what I did, this is the whole message:

Unable to install dependencies!

I’m kinda lost here, not sure where the error comes from.

[swvalenti]

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

https://www.raspberrypi.org/downloads/

[sdetweil]

@swvalenti nd use the full desktop buster image

[MaikH1]

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.

[sdetweil]

@MaikH1 correct.

[MaikH1]

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?

[sdetweil]

@MaikH1 make sure u didn’t get the 64 bit version.

should be the 1st entry here
