MagicMirror Failing on Raspberry Pi Zero W Rev 1.1

@sdetweil @butchkemper I just checked that file and it has no CONF_SWAPSIZE variable.

There is a SWAPSIZE variable set to 1024.

Is there a chance that @sdetweil’s script misnamed that variable?

@davidgagne looks like you win the prize

but funny cause it worked!

@davidgagne @butchkemper
fixed

but do

free -m

from command lineto see how big swap is

You might consider moving from the SDcard to an SSD which will provide quicker data access and improved security against SDcard failure.

If I connect an SSD via the data port and remove the SIM, will the 0 boot from the SSD? Or is there a way to configure the SIM to have it switch to the SSD or something?

[sdetweil]

@davidgagne pi 0 doesnt support boot from ssd/usb

you can make a hybrid, boot from read only sd , run from ssd
