Where are you putting the roms?
In the relevant sd card folder such as GBA, ATARI 7800, SPECTRUM etc. Erased the sd now to try a new Trixie build as could not sort my Trixie locale errors. Will reinstall retropie on another card though asap…
I have fixed the volume issue with the CM5 with this most recent build.
Hi all,
I’m getting the “illegal instruction” error at boot (after setting up login name and configuring uconsole as device). No clues on how to fix the error.
This is the setup:
CM4-8GB
Tried 64GB Lexar and 128GB SanDisk TFs
Flashed the latest image (.67) from Google Drive with rpi-imager, no custom settings (disabled by default).
Any suggestion? I have read almost every post here and on retropie forum without success..
Try flashing again and make sure you type the command to setup retropie for the device correctly.
I have tried different solutions:
repeated the download, flash compressed image, flash uncompressed image, flash with rpi-imager and balenaEtcher, nothing changed.
When running emulationstation –debug, I see messages about parsing some mame-related XMLs and get the “Illegal instruction“ message after an attempt to “Creating window…“.
I give up for now
Thanks for your help anyway!
UPDATE
Installing the optional packages via retropie_setup script solved the issue. Now I’m stuck with keyboard/gamepad configuration, but that’s another story ![]()
