DOSBox Emulator not installed?
-
I am new to Raspberry Pi and I just purchased a Pi 3 Model B. I got Retro Pie (4.0.2) setup and it appears to be working, at least I can run NES roms, but I cannot get DOS games to work. I can attempt to launch them from Emulation Station but it "aborts" and returns back to Emulation Station.
If I attempt to run +Start DOSBox.sh using /home/pi/RetroPie/roms/pc/"+Start DOSBox.sh" I get the following:
/home/pi/RetroPie/roms/pc/"+Start DOSBox.sh" line 11: /opt/retropie/emulators/dosbox/bin/dosbox: No such file or directoryIf I can directories to /opt/retropie/emulators there is no dosbox directory. I might be barking up the wrong tree, but it appears that dosbox was not installed as part of Retro Pie. Can anyone help me figure this out? I am not new to computers, but I have little experience with Linux based operating systems, so a little detail in any answers could go a long way for me. Thanks in advance for the help.

@nhigbee you need to setup wifi or use an ethernet cable and in the retropie menu go into retropie setup. Then there choose update retropie-setup. After it finishes go into manage packages. Then choose main packages i think. Then find dosbox and install it. Then back out and exit. Then reboot emulationstation. Then it should work.

That seems to have solved it. Thanks!
