ports not working in buster image
-
Sorry. I'm removing them from the weekly images.
The berryboot images were always unsupported as mentioned on our download page. They were only generated with the weekly builds due to being generated by default on our build scripts.
I may include them when we release official rpi4 images. You can generate your own, but I really don't recommend using berryboot for retropie.
It's possible I may drop them completely.

Minecraft-pi doesn't work on the rpi4. It's ancient anyway. Maybe there's an opengl version you can run. Dunno.
-
@BuZz what scripts do you use to generate the berryboot images?
-
@retropi19 https://github.com/RetroPie/RetroPie-Setup/blob/08d99e4288789c72af6a3a99829d7347402bd925/scriptmodules/admin/image.sh#L281
Function uses an unpacked image on Linux. Adjusts fstab. Then creates the squashfs.
I don't have time to go into detail. There's more info online.
-
@BuZz can you at least put back in the weekly images the stretch images for berryboot as they work fine only the buster image in Rpi4 has some problems thought
thank you
-
@retropi19 sorry no. Use the 4.5.1 and update it or generate your own.

@retropi19 The image script is used via retropie_packages.sh - It's primarily built for my own use so I can't help further but the following would build an image for rpi4 including a berryboot image (berryboot building is untested for some time as we no longer support berryboot images).
sudo ./retropie_packages image depends sudo ./retropie_packages image platform rpi4 buster 1It would be easier to just convert an existing image though probably and will be a lot quicker. eg https://github.com/Kingo71/BerryConverter
I would appreciate it if you don't go onto other topics I'm involved in and tag me with questions on unrelated issues. That's not polite.

@buzz thanks a lot a last thing can i make only a berryboot image? and also can i make a multiplatform image eg: rpi2-3-4 ? or just like the normal image that was released before rpi2-3
if i make an rpi3 image will work in rpi2 also?
thanks -
@retropi19 no. It makes both images.
The rpi2 images work on the rpi3. You can't make an image for RPI 2-4.
-
@buzz i got some errors about failed to fetch /failure resolving/unable to resolve host raspberrypi temporary failure to name resolution etc.
but the setup of image is continuing is that normal?
the conversion is finish but the converted image is only 350mb and its not working also the converted normal image is 450mb compressed and not working eather,do i need to do it in a normal pc coz i did it in a Rpi3
any other suggestion?
thanks -
if you're using it on a Debian/Ubuntu system without network-manager you will need to manually tell the script what IP address to use for DNS with
__nameserver=This is not designed to be used by end users - and you should use the other solution. Image generation parameters can be changed at any time also so what works today may not work tomorrow.
As I said :
It would be easier to just convert an existing image though probably and will be a lot quicker. eg https://github.com/Kingo71/BerryConverter
I can't help any further. We don't support berryboot.

@buzz is it possible to add the option in the retropie-setup script when installing any emulator to create also a script in the ports or emulators folder that runs directly the emulator it self ???
instead to work only by running a rom/game.
And create an extra menu in Emulationstation called stand-alone Emulators for example
for advanced users like me,i think is good to exist an option like this in Retropie.thanks
