        Please fill out your system setup info, as requested in https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first.

        You haven't mentioned what you're intending to do with the usbromservice, but it appears you're trying to store the ROMs on the USB, as explained in the Docs - did you follow the steps from the documentation page ?
