alternatively, is it simple better to format the pi and install bookworm from scratch?

yes, better to start with new base

backup MM config…
see my https://github.com/sdetweil/MagicMirror-backup-restore
make sure to copy backup folder (MM_backup) off or push to git
so you can have it for restore

@sdetweil I got it working. Tried the manual method but it didnt work so then I tried your automatic script and it worked perfectly. much appreciated.

is there a way to get the software to prompt for the user to select from a pre-built list of modules and syn with an email account?

[sdetweil]

@neo_anderson no we don’t have that

i am working in a new module installer that will let you pick from the 3rd party list catalog.

then after installing those will open my mmm-config module to allow you to configure the modules you installed
(and you can go back there at any tine, installer or config)

i don’t think there is any concept of pre-built list of modules

my restore script works from a list of the urls (created at backup tine), but its just a text file list

@sdetweil Hi there, Hope your Jan went well. Just wanted to touch base to see how youre making out with the new module. Sounds quite exciting.
