        @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.

              @theaddies send me the ~/install.log

              and do the same chromium
              and
              ./run-start.sh
              tests

              lsb_release -a

              to confirm buster

                      @theaddies interesting, log says one of them got installed

                      Unpacking chromium-browser (92.0.4515.98~buster-rpt2)

                      note u had an extra w in the text on last message

                      browswer
                      pm2 setup for autostart having trouble…

                      you do

                      pm2 autostart
                      and it gives you the command to execute to make that happen

                      then it says it can’t find the systemd init system to update, after it just said that is the one to use…
                      will have to research and debug

                        Starting chromium browser now, have patience, it takes a minute
                        
                        

                        The screen for the raspberry pi is blank. this output is from ssh.

                        I just typed it again and now I get
                        /usr/bin/chromium-broswer

                        sorry about that.
