      OK. I cannot ssh directly into the mirror. Once it goes through the bootup process, it goes black and I cannot get out of it. If I could, I could probably correct the error.

        Also while booting up, in the ‘road pic’ phase, I got to click at the menu bar for the cmd screen and typed in pm2 stop mm. Just before the screen went black I got an error msg stating ‘process mm not found’. Then it quickly went to black.

          @dwleo You need to access the mirror from another device to “ssh into it”. Read the info from the link.
          Will make things easier.

          Regarding pm2, you can find out the name of the process entering

          pm2 list
          

          or just try killing the process using

          pm2 stop all
          

          Not sure if this works.

            @lavolp3 cannot get pm stop all to work. It gives ‘process stop all not found’.
            As to ssh, all derivatives of this, either command line or remote, requires some additions to Raspberry and I cannot get that as I cannot get a command line.
            All I need is to stop the boot up process just prior to MM booting up.

              @dwleo OK. I got in and will try to edit the config.js file somehow.

                @dwleo That was a convoluted effort but it did the trick.
                Thanks lavolp3
