        @ignatius All optional packages should have a binary update/install option - don't you have that option ?

            @ignatius usually if you dont have a binary it means you arent connected to the internet. But you havent said if the source was installing. Which dosbox are you installing?

              I've tried two different WiFi Servers. No luck with either.

                Could it possibly be a permissions error?

                  @ignatius have you tried clicking on update retropie-setup? What happens? 2 things i have seen are biggest issues. No wifi or your clock settings are wrong.

                    Ok. I sovled it. It turned out that my router was blocking my RPi. Thanks to everyone for their insight.

                      Now, one last question before I close this thread. I'm trying to transfer my RPi instalation from a 16GB card to a 32GB card. I formatted just as I did my 16GB card, partitioned the same, etc, but it just isn't working. I know that the RPi requires that the first partition needs to be FAT32 formatted, and the second partition needs to be formatted ext4 Linux. I copied my installation over, but it just isn't booting. Does the RPi Zero W not support 32GB cards, or what?

                      Thanks to everyone.

                        @ignatius You can just create a backup image from your existing SD card, then write it - with Etcher/Win32Diskimager - on your new SD card. It should work as long as the Pi model is the same.
                        Afterwards, you can go into raspi-config (which you can start from the RetroPie menu) and use the Expand filesystem option to fill up the rest of your 32Gb card.
