Magic mirror does not start automatically when booting
-
@sil3ntstorm my scripts auto install 20.8.0
the problem is your system installed 20.5.1 instead…
we don’t know why yet, and don’t have a reliable fix.
pm2 can’t run cause node is broken,
so far the only fix is to rebuild your sd card …
use my backup script to save your MM config , modules, …
https://github.com/sdetweil/MagicMirror-backup-restorereflash the sd card, use my install script and then restore script…
(note that you have to get the ~/MM_backup folder to safety… maybe on github …the fixes suggested by folks on the node distro group do not work.

@sdetweil
I don’t need the backup because I just flashed the memory card and haven’t installed any modules yet.
If I re-flash the card now, what instructions should I follow so that version 20.8 is installed and not the defective 20.5.1 again?Thanks for your help so far
-
@sil3ntstorm is it the 64 bit OS, or 32? 64 bit seems to be the biggest trouble spot…
I would use the 32 bit image
then run my install script as the first thing…
we had trouble with the preinstalled node 12 too…
-
I flashed this version.
Do you have a link for the installation script?
I only saw the link for the backup script -
@sil3ntstorm my install/upgrade scripts
https://github.com/sdetweil/MagicMirror_scripts
that is the (bullseye) image I use as well…
pi0w gets the legacy (buster) image -
@sdetweil So that I don’t do something wrong for the third time, I’d rather ask carefully: I re-flashed the SD card, now I have to do this first:
bash -c “$(curl -sL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/sdetweil/MagicMirror_scripts/master/node20_install.sh)”
And then this: bash -c “$(curl -sL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/sdetweil/MagicMirror_scripts/master/raspberry.sh)”
And there is already version 20.8 in there and no longer the defective 20.5.1?
And then at the end turn off the two things for the screen saver and the autostart thing:
bash -c “$(curl -sL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/sdetweil/MagicMirror_scripts/master/screensaveroff.sh)”and
bash -c “$(curl -sL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/sdetweil/MagicMirror_scripts/master/fixuppm2.sh)”
Have I understood everything correctly so far?

@sdetweil I did it, at the beginning it said version 20.8 and further down it says that 20.5.1 was installed, did something go wrong here?
