      I have a Pi zero with the latest version of retropie installed on a 16gb sd card. I have a USB
      stick that I put into the port and it read it and installed the retropie directory and rom folder onto my USB. I put th4 gb of the appropriate roms in the correct folders. It is formated as exfat. I put the USB in the port and reboot the PI and it just boots into emulation station without copying the roms. I tried repeatedly. I also tried another USB formatted as exfat and the Pi would not even install the directories onto it, again just booting to emulation station. I really want to build this little unit for my buddy does anyone have any tips?
