      Try to remove the folder: ~/MagicMirror and use the installer as described on git.
      check this:
      https://github.com/MichMich/MagicMirror

      Manual Installation

      Download and install the latest Node.js version.
Clone the repository and check out the beta branch: git clone https://github.com/MichMich/MagicMirror
Enter the repository: cd ~/MagicMirror
Install and run the app: npm install && npm start

          @EttVenter your node version is damn old you have v0.8 but there is already 7.x

          Please create a github issue if you need help, so I can keep track

            @strawberry-3.141 Oh snap. How the hell did that even happen.

            Ok, again, as a TOTAL n00b. I assume updating that would be a:

            apt-get update" and "apt-get upgrade

            ?

                    Your node is still old. Did you run

                    apt-get update
apt-get upgrade

                    or

                    sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade

                    ? Without sudo (root rights) apt-get will not install anything and just throw out errors.

                      @yawns I ran it with sudo

                      Here’s the result of sudo apt-get upgrade after I ran sudo apt-get update:

                      pi@raspberrypi:~ $ sudo apt-get upgrade
Reading package lists... Done

Calculating upgrade... The following packages were automatically installed and are no longer required:
  libc-ares2 libv8-3.14.5

  chromium-browser libgl1-mesa-dri pprompt rpi-chromium-mods sonic-pi
  xserver-xorg-input-all

                      Then, if I do:

                      git clone https://github.com/MichMich/MagicMirror
cd ~/MagicMirror

                      as suggested above, I’m met with:

                        Very weird indeed. Did you install Jessie or Jessie Lite?
                        If I run the version commands, I get this on my pi:

                        npm -v: 3.10.8
node -v: 6.9.1
nodejs -v: 6.9.1

                        Please try this:

                        sudo apt-get remove nodered -y
sudo apt-get remove nodejs nodejs-legacy -y
sudo apt-get remove npm -y
sudo curl -sL https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_6.x | sudo bash -
sudo apt-get install -y nodejs
node -v
npm -v

                        and then try to run the npm install && npm start again in your MagicMirror folder

                          Ok, I ran all of that. Once I ran the node -v and npm -v commands I was met with:

                          pi@raspberrypi:~ $ node -v
v0.8.16
pi@raspberrypi:~ $ npm -v
1.1.69

                          So I’m assuming I’m still on super old versions. Any idea why that’s happening? Because if I run npm install && npm start, I’m getting the same errors I was getting before.

                          Also - Jessie, not Jessie lite.

                            But you did not receive any error message during removal and installation?

                                Anyone else got any ideas? Really want to get this thing going. I bought the Pi yesterday specifically for this :(

                                  @EttVenter I would suggest a total reformatting of the SD card, get the Jessie lite image and put that on your sd card.

                                  Then follow these instructions : https://github.com/MichMich/MagicMirror/wiki/Jessie-Lite-Installation-Guide

                                    I’ll give that a shot!

                                      Ok, so that all went well until I got to:

                                      Get and install MagicMirror with the Automatic Installer:

curl -sL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/MichMich/MagicMirror/master/installers/raspberry.sh | bash cd ~/MagicMirror

                                      At which point, I get “No such file or directory”.

                                      That feels like a small error that I should be able to figure out, but I just can’t seem to get past that point :/

                                        @EttVenter and if you run curl -sL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/MichMich/MagicMirror/master/installers/raspberry.sh
                                        Without the bash cd command?

                                            @EttVenter you have to use the | bash part, because what is doing is the following, curl will load the script from github and then you pipe it right into the bash command to execute the script otherwise you would just load the file

                                            Please create a github issue if you need help, so I can keep track
