Retropie & rasbian
-
Hi all,
I've tried installing retropie on my raspbian raspberry pi 4 using the terminal & it was not succesful.
Before trying again (it took about 2 hours to set up before the error appeared), i'd like to know if i can still use my raspberry pi with regular raspbian after the install?I use it for my domoticz system, as well as a browser on my tv & to make video calls in the living room.
Sorry if this is explained clearly somewhere, I'd like to be sure before trying again.
thanks in advance

@pieterken what error?
Please do not post a support request without first reading and following the advice in https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first
RetroPie is Raspbian btw. It's Raspbian lite, but the desktop can be installed later. Can't help without more information though.

@buzz thank you for the reply.
I'm not looking for technical advice right now.
I have a raspberry pi up and running now.
I use it to browse the internet on TV and to run a home automation system called domoticz.I would like to know if i install retropie using the terminal, will my current setup still operate as it does now?
Best regards

@pieterken without being familiar with the software we can't really say but retropie sits on top of raspbian, so anything that runs as a background process/daemon (which is what i assume 'domoticz' is) should still be running.
what do you use the browse the internet on TV? normal raspbian? you can launch into the pixel desktop via retropie: https://retropie.org.uk/docs/FAQ/#where-did-the-desktop-go
