@luiz_angeloni said in Retopie update deleted the roms:

I have a retrorange retropi 4.4.2 ...

That's not an official RetroPie port - it's a fork that is not supported by RetroPie, but by the authors of that fork.

You should ask for help in the retrorangepi forums (or other support channels they might have), since we don't know how this fork (based on a quite old RetroPie version) is configured or works.

@Addison said in Update Failed {SOLVED}:

I would need something to copy and paste to the command line for that.

Move the existing setup folder out of the way, then clone the latest setup version

cd mv RetroPie-Setup RetroPie-Setup.old git clone --depth=1 https://github.com/RetroPie/RetroPie-Setup.git

You can then follow the installation instructions for @ExarKunIv's extra repository.

@mitu not sure what exactly happened or why, but think I’m just going to wipe the micro SD and start over with 4.8. Thx

@mitu
That looks like it worked! Thank you so much for the quick help with the issue.

@DNVB It's an add-on package, it's not part of the RetroPie-Setup script and it wasn't maintained by the project. Sometime ago, the original repository was deleted and we created a copy for it under the RetroPie project, so that it wouldn't disappear completely.

@funkotron77 Again, I see nothing. Maybe also check the /var/log/syslog, but without grep to see every message. A simple cat /var/log/syslog will show it, and you could copy & paste the last part of the output. To be sure, you could look at it before and after the remount command, to check for changes (the same goes for dmesg).

After that, alas, I'm out of ideas. I never had to deal with something similar myself yet.

@kennyp55 We don't support pre-loaded systems or 3rd party images. Start with the image from retropie.org.uk/download and follow the instructions to install it - it's all in the Docs.

This is fixed now if you update retropie-setup.

@cargorunner said in Not working after update all packages:

Other game controls were right stick clicked as a button. So totally messed up mapping

There are 2 caveats during the upgrade

The xpad driver is overwritten when you select 'Update OS packages' and should be re-installed after the update. See https://retropie.org.uk/docs/Xbox-360-Controller/#xpad-driver. The auto-login is broken - because of Raspbian upgrades for the systemd. This should be taken care by the procedure you performed (i.e. enabling auto-login in Raspi-Config).

For the other errors, or why you're not stuck with that message, I don't know.

@mitu

Don't mind me, but this is my first time seeing Linux get infected, let alone a Raspberry Pi getting infected. Fascinating...

This is not an "infection" via a virus. It's an open system and everybody who scans port 22 and got's a ping can try user pi and Password raspberry.

Voila... install whatever you want ... a php server with a full set of bitcoin mining user interface or a bot network a porn blackbox a torrent server a hidden ftp file server endless possibilities... Nothing that's really fascinating ... just meat for underground hounds

Well, yeah, I knew that. It's just fascinating to me, because I'm into computer junk like that. Though, I never said it was virus that infected it.

@rbaker alright. I apologize. I'll look for help elsewhere.

@mitu many thanks, it's now updating to 4.3.15, appreciate your spent replying.

Anyone able to help me with this at all?

@thewinterdojer thank you so much, I finally figured it out. As I am sure you knew, the answer was looking at me every time I went to that page!

Actually, its still not working?!

I'm getting Input/output errors when its running mkdir?

Very odd.

Defintely appears to be related to limited memory.

I found this https://www.raspberrypi.org/forums/viewtopic.php?t=142243&p=940551#

sudo dd if=/dev/zero of=/swapfile1GB bs=1M count=1024
sudo mkswap /swapfile1GB
sudo swapon /swapfile1GB

I tried all other recommendations noted here before doing this, but worked like a charm. I was getting stuck at 82% "SystemScreenSaver.cpp.oc++: internal compiler error".

@TMNTturtlguy I've replied on the ticket. Exit es if building from source. Swap shouldn't fail if being used heavily. Sounds like sd card problems, but could be os. I don't want to add more swap as it would mean large swap file being created when not needed in many cases (with the current calculated swap size code).

@derebo it clearly says to start a new topic.

Sounds like it could be internet connectivity issue. But can't say for sure.

Try removing and reinstalling xpad from packages/drivers. Make sure you update the os packages.

Managed to SSH into it, manually ran updates again, had to force the dpkg lock removal, and all seems ok now, whew!
