How to replicate the problem:

I am unable to install RetroPie 4.3 on my Raspberry Pi 3. The error message appears to be a common one, but I can't find a good solution. I should also note that I am able to install a NOOBS image without any problem. When I did this I tried the manual installation at https://retropie.org.uk/docs/Manual-Installation/ but it failed at the installation step (sudo ./retropie_setup.sh). It was related to the lack of support for stretch.

It was related to the lack of support for stretch.

As you say, Stretch is not supported at the moment and there's currently no ETA.

@winteriscoming Looks like a mismatched partition - re-format the SD card so there's nothing on it and re-write the image.
