      I know this is an old subject but have only found one result from Libre. They have a prebuilt image that supposedly contains retropie but emulationstation fails to launch.I get the message " /opt/retropie/configs/all/autostart.sh: line1: emulationstation: command not found"
      any help would be great. Or i may need to see if Libre has anything else on it. Thanks

        @jcissell1029 You should ask in their forums for support, we don't support 3rd party images and RetroPie doesn't directly support this platform - so I'm guessing is a specific fork they've used to add RetroPie on their image.

          @jcissell1029 after days of wasted effort, I found this:

          https://forum.loverpi.com/discussion/891/retropie-how-to-get-the-current-build-to-load-emulationsation#latest

          Once you've booted see the bit about EmulationStation not being found, you're dropped to a Bash prompt do:
          sudo apt install rapidjson-dev
          then:
          sudo ~/RetroPie-Setup/retropie-setup.sh
          From here you will select "Manage packages", then "Manage core packages", then "emulationstation", then "Update from source"

          HOWEVER, there appears to be a syntax error as the script is named retropie_setup.sh and not
          retropie-setup.sh
          (Underscore, not dash)
          so, to launch the script installation:
          sudo ~/RetroPie-Setup/retropie_setup.sh
