      @djavs said in IM STUCK start4.elf:

      i got this image Raspberry Pi4 running VIRTUALMAN PLAYBOX v1.4.5.14 512GB RETRO-BLISS-REVOLUTION!

      We don't support 3rd party images, as outlined in https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first.
      Use the image from https://retropie.org.uk/download and you'll not have this issue.

      @djavs as you've already been told, we don't support third party images. your issue is fixed by installing official retropie: https://retropie.org.uk/docs/First-Installation/

      Is it time for a new official image?

      @TimD123 When you write an image it will delete the previous image every time. This temporary fix is outdated. You can now use the retropie 4.8 image.

      You can make an older buster image work if you replace some boot files (I don't know what they are) or put it in an older pi4 and update it that way.
