      @amook11

      I had the same problem and with my pi in the network and under

      \\retropie\configs\amiga\amiberry\conf\

      I opened and edited this file:
      rp-a500.uae
      it has a line:

      kickstart_rom_file

      there goes the exact name of your 1.3 rom in the bios folder.
      of course you can also rename your existing rom to name that's already there.

      same procedure needs to be done for the 3.1 kickstart I 've just noticed..

      for people unsure about the correct roms: https://github.com/midwan/amiberry/wiki/Kickstart-ROMs-(BIOS) there you can find information about the versions needed including a crc check code, to see if you've got the right file.

      @newmanph said in When launching a game, emulationstation switches to desktop, then back to the menu:

      Is there any way to make emulationstation work within the desktop? I know it's recommended to just use the raspberry pi to launch emulationstation, but if it's possible I'd like to use the pi for other things as well.

      You can still use the desktop, start if from EmulationStation - see https://retropie.org.uk/docs/FAQ/#where-did-the-desktop-go - and not the other way around.

      @Lord-meow-Sambo https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/2/forum-rules - there's no requests for ROMs/licensed material.

      @skylabin
      REgret the above post. It was invalid. The same error came back.
      Now I created cma=384M in /boot/firmware/cmdline.txt and now it seems to work.
      Thanks for the post made earlier .

      @gugue Just like you have .cue files, you can have .cue folders - game1.cue - and they'll show up as games in the list.

      @O-M-A-A So this happens with EVERY rom? Regardless of emulator?
      Does any emulator work as before?

      As usual, the answer is in the Docs for Runcommand.
