First Boot Problems
-
Hello,
I'm trying to boot my raspberry pi 3 for the first time with retropie. I follow the instructions but it seems something goes wrong. It's my first time doing this and I don't know what to do.
So it seems like my boot is blocking at "Starting samba nmb deacon ...", it's been an hour now and I dont know if it's just very long or if it's an error ?
If it's an error, can I just unplugged the raspberry pi ?
Thanks

@justice where did u get your Retropie image from and what program did you use to write it to the MicroSD card?
-
Also make sure u have the Pi 3 image not Pi 1

I get the retropie image from the official site and I use Win32DiskImager to write it on the microSD card. And yes I'm using the Pi 3 image

@justice I assume you get the nice rainbow screen on boot up before it loads? Retropie should boot and be running in around sixty seconds or less. Try and pull the power on the Pi then put it back in.
Can u include a photo showing where it’s getting to?
