I believe It is also possible to install retropie (i.e. The customer wants to install the app on the external SD card of his device. if you have downloaded Retropie directly, then you have to install it this way.įor this you need to use a tool like Win32DiskImager to write the Retropiexxxx.img file directly to the SD card, which will wipe out any NOOBS and other OSes already on your SD card. The alternative method is to burn an image onto the SD card directly. NOOBS/PINN were designed to make it easier for Windows users to install OSes from a windows PC simply by copying files onto the FAT formatted SD card. NOOBS only supports the Broadcom chipsets) The thing most likely to get confused about and screw up here is that the device node should not include a partition number - e.g., /dev/sda1, which refers to the first partition on the sda device. (As you have a PiZero you will need an external network connection - ethernet or wifi. To write an image to an SD card with dd, use: sudo dd of/dev/sda bs4M statusprogress.

Selecting the RetroPie menu item will let us run the Raspi-Config utility.
Once that’s all up and running we need to do a little bit of house keeping. You now need to boot up the Raspberry Pi Zero 2 board with this SD card and go through the initial RetroPie controller setup. If you have already installed some OSes with NOOBS and you want to add another, NOOBS will wipe the card and reinstall all your selected OSes, wiping any previous programs and data. Select the RetroPie image and burn the SD card. If you want to install multiple OSes, they must be installed at once by NOOBS.
