yep...

lr-fceumm = "/opt/retropie/emulators/retroarch/bin/retroarch -L /opt/retropie/l$
lr-nestopia = "/opt/retropie/emulators/retroarch/bin/retroarch -L /opt/retropie$
lr-quicknes = "/opt/retropie/emulators/retroarch/bin/retroarch -L /opt/retropie$
default = "lr-quicknes"

thanks again

Seems you edited the file but cropped the lines somehow.
Here is what you shoul have :

lr-fceumm = "/opt/retropie/emulators/retroarch/bin/retroarch -L /opt/retropie/libretrocores/lr-fceumm/fceumm_libretro.so --config /opt/retropie/configs/nes/retroarch.cfg %ROM%"
lr-nestopia = "/opt/retropie/emulators/retroarch/bin/retroarch -L /opt/retropie/libretrocores/lr-nestopia/nestopia_libretro.so --config /opt/retropie/configs/nes/retroarch.cfg %ROM%"
default = "lr-fceumm"
lr-quicknes = "/opt/retropie/emulators/retroarch/bin/retroarch -L /opt/retropie/libretrocores/lr-quicknes/quicknes_libretro.so --config /opt/retropie/configs/nes/retroarch.cfg %ROM%"

juan6uerra

my bad, sorry -

lr-fceumm = "/opt/retropie/emulators/retroarch/bin/retroarch -L /opt/retropie/libretrocores/lr-fceumm/fceumm_libretro.so --config /opt/retropie/configs/nes/retroarch.$
lr-nestopia = "/opt/retropie/emulators/retroarch/bin/retroarch -L /opt/retropie/libretrocores/lr-nestopia/nestopia_libretro.so --config /opt/retropie/configs/nes/retr$
lr-quicknes = "/opt/retropie/emulators/retroarch/bin/retroarch -L /opt/retropie/libretrocores/lr-quicknes/quicknes_libretro.so --config /opt/retropie/configs/nes/retr$
default = "lr-quicknes"

am I just missing the %ROM% variable at the end?

@juan6uerra

Copy and paste what @Sano has above and you should be good.

Edit: Of course, it looks like your default would be:

default = "lr-quicknes"

no dice :( this is what I have now after the update and failed run -

/dev/shm/runcommand.info =

@mediamogul

I tried putting it back to "lr=quicknes" and it didn't work either. Ugh.. so frustrating.
I might try reimaging the sdcard with a USB card reader instead of the builtin one on my laptop, havent tried that yet. . thx

Sano

Again the line is trucated.
But I can't say if it's just your copy-paste that truncate it, or the if it's really in the log file...

juan6uerra

@Sano

Its gotta be the file itself
I did a 'copy all to clipboard', pasted to notepad, and then made sure i got everything here.
So whatever is missing is really missing.

Windows Notepad can create all kinds of problems. Try using either WordPad, Notepad++ or EditPadLite

I am investigating this right now -

Error "Verification failed at sector: 8192"

I am unable to verify the image after I create it with the Win32DiskImager tool.

I tried a couple different sd cards, and now different readers and different USB ports. Same error on verification. Not sure if its a red herring or what, but I am investigating all possible avenues.

Looks like others are having the issue as well -

https://sourceforge.net/p/win32diskimager/tickets/50/

I am not sure what other tool I can use, since I was followign that guide by Zach, thoughts?

@mediamogul

10-4, ill test with Notpad++ after I get this new image up.. thx

juan6uerra

the post above has some merit..

"... I immediately clicked "verify only" and got the error "Verification failed at sector: 8192".
Then I tried the following:
READ the contents of the SD card back to a file TEST.IMG.
WRITE the file TEST.IMG back to the SD card.
Run "verify only".
This time, the verify succeeded without any errors."

I performed the same steps and got the same outcome.
It took 3-4x as long this time to read,write, verify the image.
Some of the NES Roms now play, still working on it
Thanks again for everyones help :)
