Can´t install Lakka on Pi4

[jcamilord]

Hi, thanks for you work,

tried to apply your script, but when you have to select the raspberry model, pi4 is not in the options, is this compatible with pi 4?

Adittionaly, i installed with your script a lakka version for pi2/pi3, and installed it correcly, but when i try to enter to lakka via berryboot menu and start to load, it freezes with in the text "reached target retroarch" , any suggestions to solve this?

thanks (sorry about my english, hope you understand)

Hi, thanks for feedback. It's true I've not updated image selections for Pi4 yet, unlike for LibreELEC. (if you are fine with tweaking shell scripts, maybe you can adapt install script looking at how Pi4 detection/selection is done on LibreELEC one; must be quite similar)

I've not checked Lakka status & support for a long while, and I'm not sure how it plays with berryboot kernel now (berryboot distributions are lagging in term of kernels for non Pi4 devices).

Not sure when I can spend time on it to work that out. Have you tried https://berryboot.alexgoldcheidt.com berryboot images? They would not auto-update as per my scripts, but they may be current: maybe they work.

Thanks for your reply, unfortunately i wasnt able to make lakka work with pi 4, i will wait more for a lakka berryboot img , for now, will use retropie. hope you can spend time on this soon..

About your failed trial on Pi2/Pi3: which Berryboot binary version did you use to initialize your setup? Recent Berryboot versions (later that October 2019) may not use AUFS but overlayfs. Therefore initial tweaks I made for Lakka to handle AUFS layout may not work, which could explain your boot issue on Pi2/Pi3. If setup was initially done with earlier Berryboot, and then migrated to later Berryboot, then legacy AUFS would still be used.

Pi4 installs are always recent, so this part needs rework too to support.
