First RPI project ever. Trying to make a portable player, eventually running on a 1tb ssd.

This may have been answered but I have searched for about 4 days trying everything I can find.

My set-up

Pi5 with DAC2 HD, Hifiberry OS (hifiberryos-20240523-pi4.img)

Monitors! 5", 7", 10", and a tv

Problem- 10" touchscreen - Flash the image, insert the card and start the RPI. Initial hifiberry login screen comes up okay. Once the os gets to the "welcome to your new sound system" screen it goes off the screen and can not continue the set up.

I can not figure out how to get the screen resolution right.  If you need more info please be specific, still learning.

thanks!

  In general, the best way to use it is over the network. A browser on your PC or even the mobile phone works better than the one on the Pi. 
  
  The best chance to get it working well if probably a "normal" 1920x1080 TV or PC monitor via HDMI. In general we wouldn't recommend anything bwlow 7" as the GUI is probably not really usuable on smaller screens as it's not designed for this. 
  
  You can find a few things you can try in this bug report:

  Thanks, I will continue to look for an OS more suited for portability.

  Thanks again

  I forgot to mention the hifiberry OS did work on a 5" and 7" touchscreen connected to the "DSI port"

  The croped photo is what the 10" screen displays
