<p dir="auto">I am trying to build my MagicMirror and I am having trouble getting the Raspberry Pi 2 Model B set up.</p>
<p dir="auto">I used the automatic installation and followed the instructions but I can’t get the interface started somehow.</p>
<p dir="auto">I get this error message:</p>
<pre><code>MagicMirror installation successful!

<p dir="auto">When I reboot the Pi, it gets me to the login screen. And when I want to start it manually, the error message above is shown.</p>
<p dir="auto">Thank you in advance for helping me.</p>

<pre><code>
Check current Node installation ...
Node currently installed. Checking version number.
Minimum Node version: v5.1.0
Installed Node version: v6.10.2
No Node.js upgrade nessecery.
It seems like MagicMirror is already installed.
To prevent overwriting, the installer will be aborted.
Please rename the ~/MagicMirror folder and try again.
