This is the majority of what will be included in the next release, so you can apply it to your build 200128 DEOT image. Good news! That means you won’t need to format your card again! I could make a streamlined installation script, but I fear that will break things! Better off doing things by hand, I’d say. 
As per @adcockm 's suggestion re: cleaning up the DEOT apps, I have updated some files.
Download and decompress these.
Apps: 40_D.E.O.T. Extra.zip - Google Drive
Updated Skin: DEOT Skin.zip - Google Drive
- Go into
/home/cpi/apps/Menuand delete the existing 41_MANUAL, 42_OPERATION, AND 43_MAIL directories. - Copy the new 40_D.E.O.T. Extra folder to
/home/cpi/apps/Menu - Copy the DEOT skin folder into
/home/cpi/skins, overwriting the existing one. This updated skin also addresses the font graphical errors.
Again, thanks @adcockm 
While I’m here, don’t forget to update to this version of retroarch.cfg. I made a small typo in the buildbot URL.
Also, if you want the Retroarch cores manager in the gameshell launcher’s setting menu to function, update
/home/cpi/launcher/Menu/GameShell/10_Settings/Cores/__init__.pywith this:

For consistency, I have also modified the Picodrive retroarch action.config to download from the buildbot URL.
- After doing the above edit to the settings menu, reload the launcher, and then run the Retroarch cores manager.
- Delete the picodrive for gameshell SO file.
- Go into /home/cpi/apps/Menu/20_Retro Games/50_PicoDrive and edit the action.config file to contain this:
ROM=/home/cpi/games/MegaDrive
ROM_SO=/home/cpi/.config/retroarch/cores/picodrive_libretro.so
EXT=bin,zip,gen,32x,smd,iso,7z
LAUNCHER=retroarch -L
TITLE=PicoDrive Roms
SO_URL=ttps://buildbot.libretro.com/nightly/linux/armv7-neon-hf/latest/picodrive_libretro.so.zip- Reload the launcher, then attempt to run a game with Picodrive. It should update to the latest version.
