    • RE: Raspberry Pi Zero W for Magic Mirror

      How to Get MagicMirror to Run on a Raspberry Pi Zero W Rev 1.1

      Late-May 2024

      Huge thanks to @sdetweil for all his help!


      1. Flash card with Legacy 32-bit.
      2. Connect via ssh to run script:
        bash -c  "$(curl -sL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/sdetweil/MagicMirror_scripts/master/raspberry.sh)"
        

        Answer yes to disable screen saver and use pm2 questions.

      3. Remove chromium with:
        sudo apt-get remove chromium-browser
        sudo apt autoremove
        
      4. Add Firefox with:
        sudo apt-get update
        sudo apt-get install firefox-esr
        
      5. Enable VNC using GUI (Interface Options):

        sudo raspi-config

      6. Connect via TigerVNC (Apple app)
      7. Edit installers/mm.sh via VNC using Pi's baked-in text editor by adding:
        cd ~/MagicMirror
        export external_browser=firefox
        DISPLAY=:0 npm start
        
      8. Execute fix'em-up script:
        bash -c "$(curl -sL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/sdetweil/MagicMirror_scripts/master/fixuppm2.sh)"
        
      9. cd ~/MagicMirror/
        pm2 start MagicMirror
        
      10. sudo reboot

      Note: On my Pi Zero W it takes a solid ten minutes from reboot to actually seeing MM output via HDMI.
