    It throws me an error that there is no space left to update the script. Then, i go to expand the 32gb sd card with 15gb free, and it says you are using noobs, and it is already expanded.

    I have Raspbian and have confirmed there is space on the sd card. But I noticed there was no space in retropie. So how do I make space for retropie?

      Unfortunately if you're using NOOBS you cannot easily re-size your raspbian partition because of the way NOOBS partitions the sd card. The easiest method is to save your settings and ROMs, then re-flash the card with the RetroPie provided Pi image for your model, then restore your ROMs and settings back. You'll be able to use the whole sd card for RetroPie.

        Ok, thank you. I was originally trying to install a driver for my ps3 controller, which led me down this rabbit hole... so I still cannot install that driver, correct?

          @usarmyvet You could delete some of the ROMs to make some free space and then try installing the driver.
