Error instaling Retropie 4.6 on Raspbian Buster in a Rpi4 4GbRam

beyondthegrave

I can't find that log.

I use this tutorial " https://retropie.org.uk/docs/Manual-Installation/ " to install Retropie in Raspbian Buster version.

How I can delete all the Retropie-Setup directory to get a clean and fresh intallation.

Just delete it using rm, then clone it again.

@mitu I don't know what is the complete command.
I have to text only "rm RetroPie-Setup" or I have to use sudo too? This my first time handling a Raspbery Pi.

No, sudo shouldn't be needed.

This my first time handling a Raspbery Pi.

Then I suggest you install from a pre-made image that you can download from retropie.org.uk/download.

But the tutorial link in that page only install from the source, and not the downloaded one pre-made image that you recommend me which is in my download folder.

A manual installation is preferred when you already have a system installed and perhaps some other things installed on it. If you're not in that situation, then you should start with a pre-made image and not a manual installation. It's just an alternative method of getting RetroPie working on a Raspberry Pi.

The RetroPie image is based on Raspbian Lite, so if you're starting from scratch, there's no reason to prefer a manual installation over the premade image.

@Oldies4ever How are you installing RetroPie ? RetroArch installs fine from source with the latest RetroPie version.
Please add the info requested in https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first.

Can't reproduce the error - did you modify anything in your config.txt (disabling KMS) ? Don't you have a binary installation option for RetroArch ?

Oldies4ever

Hello @mitu

Thank you very much for your hint about KMS in the config.txt file.
I really didn't paid attention to this.
It was really commented, I don't know why. I didn't ever edit this file.
Now the installation has finished successfully.

The solution was really uncomment the two lines below regarding KMS dtoverlay into /boot/config.txt (and restart) :

[pi4]
# Enable DRM VC4 V3D driver on top of the dispmanx display stack
dtoverlay=vc4-fkms-v3d
max_framebuffers=2

[all]
dtoverlay=vc4-fkms-v3d
start_x=0
gpu_mem=256
hdmi_enable_4kp60=1

Thank's a lot for your help. I hope this topic may help many other friends to enjoy Retropie.

Kind Regards.
