      @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.
