      I have already tried to press 1-2-3-4
      It would want the option 5 (Custom Resolution Settings)

      The config.txt file has changed and thanks to this I have no problems in viewing recalbox and raspbian, but the boot menu can not be displayed.
      I see white screen with vertical lines.

        @Usato drop it in the very first partition, the noobs one. It's like configuring BIOS, this file is read prior to booting the OS.

          This is interesting...
          can you explain it better?
          I would like to have more details ...

            If I modify the files:
            /media/pi/SYSTEM/noobs.conf ?

            or

            / Media / pi / 01A6-0A6B (I believe the noobs partition) /config.txt ?

            For a reboot i saw the picture of noobs, bad quality, but i was fine, then i deleted the string: "hdmi_drive = 1" and after everything came back as before ... then i got it back but nothing.
            I really do not understand.

            Ps: I will reboot 30 times to do the tests.

              I have no idea where it is mounted in raspbian, i'd rather trust it's the /dev/mmcblk0p1, up to you to check where it is mounted with mount

                I honestly do not understand what to do.

                  @Usato The aim is to mount /dev/mmcblk0p1 (the very first partition of the sdcard that is in fact noobs) and add a config.txt from here

                  just out of my mind, try :

                  mkdir -p /tmp/noobs
                  mount /dev/mmcblk0p1 /tmp/noobs
                  

                  If mount succeeded, you should be able to cd /tmp/noobs and create a config.txt from there. Do you know which lines you're supposed to add to the config.txt for noobs ?

                    correct?

                      command:
                      mount /dev/mmcblk0p1 /tmp/noobs

                      message:
                      mount: only root can do that

                      ????

                        @Usato Sorry I'm so used to be root, and not having to sudo

                        So :

                        mkdir -p /tmp/noobs
                        sudo mount mount /dev/mmcblk0p1 /tmp/noobs
                        

                        Then editing the file needs to be done through sudo, always. For example : sudo nano /tmp/noobs/config.txt. I'm not sure about the mount options to give any user the read/write access to the mount point

                            @Usato now you edit the config.txt as suggested

                            I made you create a new folder in /tmp as it will get erased on reboot, so that you don't have ghost reps in /media/pi
