      @theaddies armv6 is slow. could be 3 minutes til mm comes up.

      can you show me the output of
      pm2 logs --lines=50

      the script should have modified package.json start clause to be ./run-start.sh

      no electron is available for armv6 anymore, so I try to launch chromium.

      also send me the ~/install.log

        @sdetweil It is slow, but I have been working on this for 12 hours so there is ample time for something to have worked.

                @theaddies The way I want to run the mirror is that it automatically opens and displays the mirror at boot. I sometimes see things for serveronly and I am not sure if that is what is being configured. I don’t think that is what I want.

                  @theaddies ok, a little more info

                  type in terminal window

                  which chromium
                  which chromium-browser

                  they should return the file path to one of those

                  whichever gives a path copy paste that in the terminal window

                  and see if it will start

                  I’ve never seen a pi 2, but this all works on pi 0w, also armv6l

                    @theaddies because there is no electron browser anymore for armv6l

                    I change the setup to serveronly, and then launch chrome browser over the server. you get the same result

                            @theaddies yep, can’t run bullseye on armv6l

                            must be the legacy image, buster

                            SOOO
                            reflash SD card w buster and run install again

                            chromium is compiled for armv7, so instructions armv6 doesn’t have, this illegal instruction error

                            need to add another test to install

                                  @sdetweil Thanks for all the help. I have several pi4s I just want to use the model 2 because the mirror is a perfect application for the older computer.

                                      @sdetweil After I run the install script, what do I do. Since the script disables the screen saver and configures the Mirror to autostart I thought I would not need to do anything else. However, pm2 status all reveals that there is nothing running. I run pm2 status all and it is blank.

                                      I am not sure if I should follow the process in the link below.
                                      https://howchoo.com/g/ntcymzbimjv/how-to-install-magic-mirror-on-your-raspberry-pi

                                      When I reboot the mirror I get the magicmirror2 logo showing up and it seems to be booting up but then the screen goes blank and I have nothing. It is almost like it reboots the pi.
