Here are working links to the 2 images that @sugarfree has made. I have not touched them in anyway so you will have to update them if you want the latest
- list itemBasic Image (RetroPie v 4.8.9 - commit: 69cd744 / Feb 20, 2025) . It has only the core, main, usbromservice, and xpad driver packages installed,
similar to an official RetroPie image. The size of the zipped image is 1.1Gb and 16Gb unzipped.

@mitu is it ok to have links to a certain archive site to host these images. or is it preferred to stay away from them

Thanks again for sharing the files.
Unfortunately the plus file does not decompress with the message that the file is corrupt. Tried downloading again with the same result.
The basic version does decompress without issues.

@ExarKunIv Just tried to install the plus version on my pi 5 16GB, using the download at this link:
https://drive.google.com/file/d/1W8r9NyCGjc8zpUJ6srTSek8rNqe3Be7b/viewIt burns to the sd card just fine (using raspberry Pi Imager) but its failing to boot. Can you confirm if this is the right download?
-
Thanks for the image, I´m using it fine, only problem comparing to my Pi 3 is that for some reason in Retroarch swap my A/B fire button, a bit annoying, doesnt know yet why

Go in Retropie-setup -> Configuration / tools -> emulationstation -> 3 Swap A/B Buttons

@DTEAM Thanks, didnt see that option before :)

@rabidpi should be working. I did a few weeks ago when I redid the link.
I'll have to check it again when I'm back from vacation
-
Can someone please tell me what's going on?
I have succeeded in starting the Plus version, but I am having trouble extending the partition in the EX4 area (rootfs). (By default, there is only 14GB of space, so the space will soon be full.)
I tried to expand it using DiskGenius in Windows, but failed with an error, and tried to expand it from Disk Management in Ubuntu, but failed.
I am stuck in this situation.
I am using a Sundisk Ultra 256GB.
Please let me know if anyone can help me solve this problem.Translated with DeepL.com (free version)

@geso you have to go and expand it from raspi-config
Or that's what I have to do each timeI believe it's under the advanced menu. Not 100% since I'm not in front of my pi
-
@rabidpi yes i confirmed the like you posted works correctly
i used balenaEtcher for this on to a 32 gig card.
i was able to boot correctly in to retropie and also expand the image to fill the card
