      What way will I go about this? I have tried using both Xinit and PM2 but cannot seem to get my scripts to auto run

      I have

      mmstart.sh
      
      #!/bin/bash
      cd ~/MagicMirror;
      node serveronly &
      sleep 30;
      sh /home/pi/MagicMirror/PiZero/chromium_start.sh
      

      and another

      chromium_start.sh
      
      #!/bin/sh
      unclutter &
      chromium-browser --start-fullscreen --app http://localhost:8080
      

      I am not sure why these are not working or how to troubleshoot them?

        @aidandon I commented on the other post; not sure if you have solved already. Did you install using my github repo? If so, the problem is that my pm2_MagicMirror.json file is looking for a file called startMagicMirror.sh and not mmstart.sh, so it won’t know to run your mmstart.sh file.

        Edit: if you have this working now, can you mark the post as solved.
