      ive used this link to the “T” and watched numerous videos and cannot get the pi to autoboot to magic mirror. Any help would be appreciated.https://github.com/MichMich/MagicMirror/wiki/Auto-Starting-MagicMirror
      When I try the ‘chmod +x mm.sh’ nothing happens.

      pi@raspberrypi:~ $ pm2 start mm.sh
      [PM2] Applying action restartProcessId on app [mm](ids: [ 0 ])
      [PM2] mm ✓
      [PM2] Process successfully started

      pi@raspberrypi:~ $ pm2 save
      [PM2] Saving current process list…
      [PM2] Successfully saved in /home/pi/.pm2/dump.pm2
      pi@raspberrypi:~ $

      Another question:
      I would like the magic mirror to turn on and off at certain times. Is the pi supposed to run continuously and just start and stop magic mirror or is everything supposed to turn on and off? Im new to all this and slowly working my way through.
