@juicebox yes, we do not support node 23 at this time
The doc says to check the level needed

You can do this

sudo npm i n -g
sudo n 20

Then you can do the npm run install-mm in the MagicMirror folder

@juicebox

Can you close and open the terminal window
And then do
node -v

[juicebox]

@sdetweil it says
v23.3.0

[sdetweil]

@juicebox can you redo the

sudo n 20

and show me the output

[juicebox]

@sdetweil the output

copying : node/20.18.1
installed : v20.18.1 (with npm 10.8.2)

[sdetweil]

@juicebox ok

also do

which nvm

(should return nothing)

then

hash -r

returns nothing
then

node -v

[juicebox]

@sdetweil
i got that
v23.3.0

[sdetweil]

@juicebox ok… well, I don’t know…

start over
use my install script, it adds nodejs as required
see
https://github.com/sdetweil/MagicMirror_scripts

[juicebox]

@sdetweil
tried that now it is unable to install the dependencies

[sdetweil]

@juicebox tried what?

you flashed a new SD card, with some full image (as required)
booted the new sd card
and then ran my script

show me the ~/install.log

you CANNOT just run the script… as it does NOT undo the bad node version
