      Hi,

      I wasn't able to find official guide to boot retropie from usb on a rpi4, only for raspi OS...I'd like to know if there are any ways to boot retropie directly from an SSD.

      Thanks

        The RetroPie RPI image is just a Raspi OS Lite installation, so as far as booting is the same as a Raspi OS image. Just write the image to the USB disc and boot from it. With any recent Pi4 revision, it should boot from USB automatically.
