      Hi, i have loaded Retro pi on top of Raspbain OS.
      Im now stuck on how to make Retro pi boot instead of Raspbain. i am running the system in a gameboy case with the standard buttons so i need it to load without me having to type "emulationstation" every time, any advice would be much appreciated, thank you

              @roary It says in "retropie setup". That's an option in the RetroPie menu in EmulationStation. Much of the RetroPie configuration is there.
