      I appreciate that this is very much a noob question but I have downloaded the SD card image for the RPi 2 and Retropie is working but the Dragon 32 emulator Xroar is not present. I have put the D32.rom in the bios folder and .cas files in a folder I made for Xroar (following the instructions). I have gone through the docs but can't see how to activate or install Xroar. Thank you for your help, I am so looking forward to playing Lunar Rover Patrol and Tandy Color Baseball again!

          Thank you so much. One last thing, where do I put the Dragon BIOS so that the XROAR emulator will work? I have tried this on Mac and Windows as well as Retropie, can never get it to work. I put it in the BIOS folder but just get the random ASCII screen again.

            @smnbldwn Did you place it in...

            /home/pi/RetroPie/BIOS

            But more importantly, is it the correct d32.rom and labelled as such? All according to this.

              @rbaker You legend! I had the ROM but hadn't renamed it d32.rom. It now works fine. Dragon heaven here I come!
