          I used a Raspberry pi 2 with a fresh install of Raspbian Jessie and I followed the step by step tutorial (https://forum.magicmirror.builders/topic/236/complete-setup-tutorial)

            I believe @paviro is the Electron God around here. But he’s busy with school at the moment so it may be a bit before he responds.

                as I c, you’ve installed your MagicMirror in the /root directory.
                I’m not sure if this is working so far.

                Try to install everything as pi and not as root in the /home/pi directory and let us know what happend.

                try whoami -> pi

                update your distribution with sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade

                then cd /home/pi or only cd

                and install again: curl -sL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/MichMich/MagicMirror/master/installers/raspberry.sh | bash
