          @chris419 In Linux, the commands, as well as filenames, are case-sensitive. So copy and paste the command from the docs AS IS:

          # correct command
          sudo mv -v /home/pi/RetroPie/* /media/usb0/
          
          # wrong command 
          # sudo mv -v/home/pi/retropie/* /media/usb0/
          

          If this gives an error, then please paste the error here so we can take a look.

                        My brother lives a block over and has been promising to bring my sling blade back for over a month. It's such a nice day out, I think I'll walk over there and borrow it back.
