            @sdetweil oh it reboots everytime I install magicmirror, how do I prevent this? because it always reboots like 1/3 of the way through the progress bar and it always did it so I thought it was normal lol can I stop this? I have a pi 3+ btw

              @jmartin1009 it also does that everytime I try to install electron so maybe that’s why it isn’t working :confused: is there any fix for this?

                    @sdetweil I believe u figured out why it was restarting, a common cause of it is lack of power, and some person had problems with their keyboard drawing too much power so I unplugged it and it went all the way through without rebooting, but I still got some issues, im left with

                      @jmartin1009 I think u need to restart the install

                      Erase the node_modules folder, and do it again
