      Super frustrating experience trying to get MagicMirror up and running on a raspberry pi model 2 b. I tried to do the manual installation and got the error:

      curl -sL https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_16.x | sudo -E bash -
      ## Installing the NodeSource Node.js 16.x repo...
      
      ## You appear to be running on ARMv6 hardware. Unfortunately this is not currently supported by the NodeSource Linux distributions. Please use the 'linux-armv6l' binary tarballs available directly from nodejs.or  >
      

      So I went ahead and ran the script below:

      bash -c  "$(curl -sL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/sdetweil/MagicMirror_scripts/master/raspberry.sh)"
      

      Everything seemed to work well and I get the message below.

      [PM2] Saving current process list...
      [PM2] Successfully saved in /home/pi/.pm2/dump.pm2
      Do you want to disable the screen saver? (y/N)?y
      We're ready! Run pm2 start MagicMirror from the ~/MagicMirror directory to start your MagicMirror.
      

      when I type ‘pm2 start MagicMirror’ It says process started successfully, displays the table with id, name, node, etc and then just returns the prompt. Nothing happens. I’m super frustrated. I am going through all this due to a corrupted SD card but I didn’t have this kind of trouble getting it to work originally

      I appreciate any help.

        @sdetweil OK So I went ahead and did the whole thing over again for the fourth time with the exact method you outlined. It works. It would be nice to somehow let the next poor sod who wants to waste 2 days of their life of the right way to do this on a pi2.

          @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
