I am getting the following errors when I run “npm start”

pi@raspberrypi:~ $ npm startIt looks as though you’re running
npm start
in the wrong directory. Please trycd MagicMirror
and thennpm start

I went into the directory you gave me and this is what it gave me back;
pi@raspberrypi:~ $ cd MagicMirror
pi@raspberrypi:~/MagicMirror $ npm startmagicmirror@2.2.2 start /home/pi/MagicMirror

pi@raspberrypi:~/MagicMirror $To be honest I have no idea how I messed this up. I simply pasted the bash code on the website and hit enter. then tried npm start.

you have to install first and then start with npm install && npm start

I just got my R Pi 3, installed Raspbian Stretch with Desktop, and tried to install Magic Mirror.
I was getting “hash sum mismatch” on package updates until I plugged in a network cable (instead of using WiFi). The packages updated properly, and Magic Mirror installed and ran fine showing the default modules!
