    I am trying to follow the complete set up guide (found here https://forum.magicmirror.builders/topic/236/complete-setup-tutorial/2) but Jessie is no longer available. Should I download Stretch or do I need to find a copy of Jessie somewhere?
    Thank you.

      My opinion: DO NOT USE STRETCH

      With that said, you can get any version you want here. The last 2 on the list (most recent) are Stretch.

      The choice is yours.

        @Mykle1 So I chose the 6-23 folder. What is the difference between the different zip files? They seem to vary drastically in size. Thank you.

                Re: Complete Setup hello and sorry for the noobie question, but do we need this specific raspbian image ( 2017-06-21-raspbian-jessie.zip ) to set this up, or can we just download the latest?

                Again, sorry for the noobie question, i just joined the community and i’m looking forward to starting this project.

                Thanks in advance for your support.

                    Personally, I would NOT (and don’t) use any version of Stretch for running MM. With that said, you could use any of the last few versions of Jessie without worry
