      Hi All,
      I am running on Pi 3,
      installed the PI OS lite (2023-12-05-raspios-bullseye-arm64-lite.img) and fully updated.
      after installing the Node.js as instructed in Manual installation, the command git clone… did not work, got the error: “git: command not found”, installed git using the command sudo apt install git, after that the command “git clone https://github.com/MichMich/MagicMirror” worked and all other commands until “npm run start”, where I get the error:

      pi@xxx/etc/apt/keyrings/MagicMirror $ npm run start
      
      > magicmirror@2.25.0 start
      > DISPLAY="${DISPLAY:=:0}" ./node_modules/.bin/electron js/electron.js
      
      sh: 1: ./node_modules/.bin/electron: not found
      

      Can anybody help on this?

        @eitan mm needs full, not lite. must have graphics desktop
        once you have the right os
        you can do

        cd ~/MagicMirror
        npm install electron@26.2.4

          Thanks,
          I thought MM could run on a small system, save some disk space,
          Will update the OS.
