cannot get Raspberry pi 2 to run

[sdetweil]

@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

Ready to go! Please point your browser to: http://localhost:8080
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.

@theaddies screen black, yes, takes long time

increase swap space helps some

use Midori browser helps some more (have to install Midori, and set an env variable, see doc )

[theaddies]

@sdetweil The screen has been black for an hour. When i reboot, the first thing I see is the MagicMirror logo. That is different than before. Before it booted into the raspian desktop and then the magicmirror loaded. It did take a while. Now, as I said above, I see the MagicMirror logo it seems to be loading and then the screen goes blank. It does not come back. ssh works, but the keyboard and mouse on the pi itself will not wake it up.

I did see the correct screen after I ran the command below, but I can’t do that now.

DISPLAY=:0 npm start

[sdetweil]

@theaddies pm2 is not working for autostart for some reason

[sdetweil]

@theaddies reboot, then run the fixuppm2 script from my scripts page…

let me know

[sdetweil]

@theaddies ok, I was able to reproduce the problem

after reboot do this

pm2 startup

it will return a command to execute

copy paste that command and hit enter

it worked for me to manually enter the command

i opened this issue in pm2
https://github.com/Unitech/pm2/issues/5582

[sdetweil]

@theaddies i updated the install script to fail if the system is bullseye and this is an armv6l device

[theaddies]

@sdetweil I cannot get the pi to display anything via hdmi. my only access to it now is via ssh.

[sdetweil]

@theaddies eh? not even the desktop?

I installed fresh on my pi0w, (all via ssh) and after fixing the pm2 issue it autostarts mm as expected
