Vero 4k+ Retropi (sdcard) & OSMc dual boot

[pjwentink]

Hi there,

After spending some weeks with the vero 4k+ im pretty amazed by how it handles 4k HDR content. Getting Retropi to work properly is a lot of work and the internal disk is quit small for all the roms that need to be downloaded manualy…

So here is my dream setup; Osms installed on the internal storrage and a retropi image like the one in this video installed on a external sd card > 256gb Retropie 4.5.1 King Build For Pi 3 B+ - 20,000+ Games - YouTube

IS it possible that the user can Choose during booting up which OS starts (OSMC of the internal drive or the fully installed retropi on the external sd drive).

[HOW-TO ] retrOSMCmk2: a RetroPie installer on the Vero4K

There’s a new installer for RetroPie on the Vero4K! It still supports the RPi, so it’s been imaginatively called… retrOSMCmk2 What does this installer add? Binary install options for the Vero4K for all of the tested emulators, so you’ll be up and running in minutes rather than hours; Provides a new launcher addon as standard; Fixes the popup menus on the Vero4K when you start a game (you may not have noticed but previously they didn’t display at all, so you couldn’t select the default core …

There are instructions here regarding using a USB drive for ROMs with Retrosmc.

Is there really a need to dual boot?

Think they wish to use a prebuilt back up on the sd card
