Raspberry Pi RetroPie - Single Mame Rom Boot for Dedicated Vertical Display
thestobbster:
I just posted a video on my YouTube channel showing the boot time. It looks like it takes about 2 minuted to startup on the Raspberry Pi 3.

Pi3 here. No roms installed. Boots to the Galaga graphic and no combination of keys or buttons gets me off the screen. I assume that I need it to boot all the way to get in and set up network connection to install roms so at this point I am stuck.
Can anyone help?
Update: After a very long time (10+ minutes?) it finally booted up.
All I had was a usb keyboard plugged in and of course my monitor via hdmi. No sound connected, no game pads.
I was just about to give up and was making some fries for dinner when I saw the screen flash out of the corner of my eye and noted it was booted finally.
I know there has been some discussion about long boot times. I am using a rather speedy SD card but I will try another one just to see if there is a difference.

If anyone is having issues downloading the image lately from my website it was missing again and I just put it back up. I am looking into hosting it in an alternate location for future hosting.
I have re-uploaded it as a multi-file 7zip. Each of the 6 files are 650megs. By breaking the image up it makes it easier to get the smaller files downloaded rather than a single 4GB file.
The download instructions have been updated as well...
