I have no such problems. Is there anything in the runcommand log file?
Did you use my script to install everything?
Wow I am so excited to try this - I had 2 SD cards for OSMC and RetroPie, Iâd love to just have one. Thanks for doing this!
By the way, are you mcobit from the Pandora forums? 
Yes, I am. Hi wermy!
Hah, small world. 
Awesome to see you still contributing to cool stuff like this.
Sorry for the double-post, just wanted to report back and say this worked great! Seriously, thanks a ton!
First I wanna say that mcobit did a great job on this!
Second of all, I am new to all of this, but I love the raspberry pi, and everything that is possible with the little machine.
I have installed osmc rc2 since last weekend (I did have rabbit running for a while) on my Pi2. I was searching for a way to get emulators running on it, and I have stumbled on this.
As I said, I am a complete noob on this stuff, but installation went without problems.
But when I select the shortcut in osmc, the screen goes black, and I end up in osmc again.
If I run emulationstation from shell I get this:
/usr/bin/emulationstation: line 16: /opt/retropie/supplementary/emulationstation/emulationstation: no such file or directory
That actually means that not everything went right. Did you do the binary installation the first time you saw the retropie setup script?
It cannot find the emulationstation binary.
Hi. I was using a RPi 1 B+ and i could not get any emulators to run at all.
Finally i ended up ordering a RPi 2 and almost everything works fine now, except dosbox which refuses to run.
My new question: is it possible to use lirc input to control emulationstation?
Great. I have no use for lirc input there, but if you can map lirc commands to keypresses, it should easily be able to control emulationstation via ir remote.
First of all, thank you for the tutorial! Everything works very well so far.
However, after I finished installing retropie, I tried to SSH into my Pi via Putty as I did before but now I get
âNetwork error: Connection refusedâ. Any suggestions on how to fix that problem?
That shouldnât be a problem related to retropie.
Did you try to reboot?
Thanks for your reply. Yeah, this did not solve the problem sadly. Problem is probably not connected with retropie but to get it installed I used putty for the first time. Worked like a charm. I closed putty after everything was done. Tried to use putty again shortly afterwards but now I get this error. I tried changing IP but still doesnt work. If someone knows a possible sollution it would be very appreciated.
I did the binary installation, and it took a pretty long time to finish everything. Also I didnât see anything out of the ordinary afterwards.
Is there any way to check if something went wrong there?
Could be that they changed some paths in retropie itself. In this case I have to fix that by reinstalling myself.
Anyone else has this problem?
Can I do the download and binary installation again?
Maybe the download didnât go well?
I did do the script a second time, because after the first it didnât work. But alas.
Of course. You can run everything again and see if it works better
Good news for me, and for you too!
I redownloaded the script, and started it all again.
This time the script said i had to get the binaries for some emulators myself, and had to press âokâ
I also got the message âsambaâ couldnt be installed, is that a problem?
Anyway, the good news is that starting retropie from osmc works now!
Thanks again for this awesome script mcobit!!
Ok. There may have been an error the first time you ran it.
Good to hear that it works.
Edit: As said before, samba cannot be installed as it is available by the osmc store and would interfere with that i it was installed. Donât worry. Thatâs correct.
Hi mcobit,
I search some time ago for RPI2 solution to create multi-boot for OSMC and RetroPie, but yesterday I found topic with your script. Was happy that itâs so easy but after installation appears problem with boot RetroPie script. After installation shortcut not appears in OSMC and I found in some reply in these topic how to create manually shortcut, but after I browse in home/osmc I noticed that there is no file retropie.sh. During instillation I didnât notice any problem, was few warnings about BIOS for emu. at end, but nothing unusual. What could goes wrong, where is my mistake? I try even install fresh OSMC RC2 but situation was same. I use Samsung 16GB MicroSDHC EVO Class 10 on my RPI2
Screenshot of dir, what appears after install.
I set this up, and it works great, but I have noticed one oddity. After installing this, the boot screen is weird. It still shows the blue OSMC boot screen, but the verbose text is superimposed over it. Any way to get the non-verbose screen back?
