This beast-build works just great!!
Most Add-Ons in this build just work “out of the box”, only a little tweaking on some local settings like Timezone or subtitles, but nothing special.

On the Retropie side, I’ve made a NFS mount to the NAS I own. Edited het fstab and crontab files in /etc and all the roms on the NAS are loaded on startup. Now I have almost endless space for the roms and it loads just like if it is on the Pi (or SD) itself. Even both controllers (Logitech Rumblepad and a PS3) are working the first time booting. Not even a single error.
Even my daughter (9 yrs) is playing these old games now. :)

If I find any errors or hiccups (which I doubt) I’ll let you know.

Thanks again for the GREAT work!

Excellent, I’m glad its working out for you. Good idea to use the nas drive. I have one myself so I should really use it for something other than SD card backups! Its sitting with about 2.4TB free right now, clearly wasted haha!

I can’t wait til my son is old enough to appreciate the retro games. He’s only 20months old so all he wants to do is bash the controllers around the house. :/

Who needs an Xbox or ps4 when you have RetroPie though eh? :)
