          @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.

                      @theaddies send me the ~/install.log

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

                      lsb_release -a

                      to confirm buster
