9.1-Pulstar not booting up with Pi Zero W

[Kedar PD]

Hi !

I am facing this issue where the Recalbox is refused to boot after this screen I am stuck in this. I am using RPi Zero W (not zero 2W) and have also NES and MAME ROMs copied but it is still stuck here not sure what the problem is as it is not responding to my connected keyboard over USB.

I was using the following image...

Does anyone have any idea what's happening? Can someone help?

I connected the keyboard and checked. I get error initialising GL renderer. I am using pi zero and just one hdmi connected.

@Kedar-PD I am having the same issue. Have you found a fix for this?

@Kedar-PD same issue! For now I'm using Retropie and it works fine. I tried different images and several sdcards. Gets tuck everytime.

The same here. I was trying to install an ili9341 at retropie witout luck, so right now I was attempting to do it with retroarch, but I am not able to boot.

I am working with a raspberry pi zero hw, I could run retropie and recalbox 7.2.2 on it, so i supous that the isue is with the recalbox 9.1 image.

I also tried to install recalbox 9.1 with the Raspberry pi imager and with rufus, with the same result.

Conecting a keyboard the only thing i was able to do was rebooting by pressing ctrl + alt + supr. But it allways ends at the same screen.

Hi,

I just had the same issue with a new install on rpi1 B+

• Plug a keyboard
• On screen with ghosts press F4 then Alt+F2
• enter login root/recalboxroot
• nano recalbox.conf
• edit line with ;system.es.videomode=CEA 4 HDMI and remove the ;
• ctrl+x and yes save
• reboot

@srounsroun how do I get this to type on the line that needs to be changed? I put the recall boxes password in and I got a number sign a pound sign. Can you please give me some information as soon as possible on what to do here I am running the pie trying to load Pulstar 9.1 and I am able to get the password and username in and that’s all the further I’m getting
