      Please help! I have 20 hours into a perfect image and during an emulation station upgrade to try and fix the keyboard not working when going to command prompt, the power went out. When fired back up emulation station theme shows then drops to command prompt. The code up top says "Segmentation fault"

      I was able to get to update emulation station once again from source by going through command line. Once again, I get this error. This time though I see the joystick and other normal info on command line area.

      I check some directories, and emulators are there with the changes I made to them (recently setting controllers for mupen64plus).

      Is there anyway for me to save this image, update emulation station so everything works as such before the power outage? Please help, I am lost. Thanks!

        @virg1 update your setup script and try building it from source again, there were some upstream issues that should be fixed (for now)

        If you read the documentation it will answer 99% of your questions: https://retropie.org.uk/docs/

          @virg1 try to update from source again. Maybe it was a buggy PR that was merged a few hours ago but it was reverted about an hour ago.

              I was able to save image, emulationstation now works. Did want to mention that I thinks still buggy though. If this helps: Went to Raspi-config from menu, locked up now. Cannot navigate with keyboard. Also, you only get 1 shot to go into n64 configuration menu using "x" to enter. After the once it will not work, and got to work again by completely shutting down system.

              I think the 2 are tied together, and somehow keyboard is not being registered. Hope this helps you all and thanks for your help!
