@mitu Will do - but will be later - am not currently home.

However - before I left - I did copy in a quick test - atari 2600 roms and bios.

Seems to run fine.

Will grab the logs later

@Ashpool That worked. Having trouble setting up my controller, but I think it's stupid user error :)

Thanks a lot!

@mitu

yes, I'm scammed.
I clearly ordered a 3b+ model and got a b+ model.
I'm sorry for bothering you with this stupid mistake.

Thanks for the help!

There isn't a configuration setting for that. If you want a certain splashscreen to run only once, then you'll have to run a script on first boot that will switch the video files - same name, different files.

Hi, this also happens to me. No problems with Pi 3B+, but I just got a new Pi Zero W, and freezes all the time with RetroPie.

I've tried this versions:

Retropie 4.5.1 -> when it freezes I stil can do F5 in Web Manager and see the temperature, or sometines reboot with Putty if I already had one session opened. And one of those times, Putty threw this when it froze:

RetroPie 4.5 -> Also freezes randomly.

RetroPie 4.4 -> Also freezes, but exits EmulationStation and shows "Segmentation Fault". I have and screenshot if you need it.
And Putty threw this:

RetroPie 4.3 -> Also freezes

NOOBS_v2_8_2 -> Raspbian Ok, update everything..., until I install RetroPie manually, then it freezes right away!

I have to try Recalbox...

@Dwarfboysim thank you for your help, I did all the installation from the start and it goes well.

have a nice day :)

@delladar The 4 raspberry icons and the multicolor screen is normal, there's no error there. But you're using a charger which probably is not suited for the RPI, which needs 5V and 2.5A power supply to work. Use a proper power supply and re-try.

Glad you got it figured out :)

@justhoeber if it does it again with a new pi then you may have a bad TV ;)

using pi1 images worked great, thanks again guys!

@julian2000P how many raspberries do you see during boot?

@BuZz Thanks !!!! I am using the correct image now.

@meleu
Okay thank you :)
And what about a simple keyimport. Just import KEY and SSID from /boot/wlankey.txt to /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf? That's just a simple grep command :)
But somebody has to put this small script tool to the standard image file :) and make it somehow executable via joypad :)

@blazein said in First boot up of retropie comes up with a command line.:

@mitu still goin to the command screen when do the login auto

That's because Emulationstation crashes and it leaves you at the command line. Try updating your packages (if you haven't done so) and if you still get the error, then you should open a new topic with this problem - it's no longer an auto-login issue - and provide the information asked in https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first.
