Raspberry Pi 3 Booting into single rom

I can't seem to get this to work right using Advance MAME.
It will boot to the rom in advance mame no problem.
But then after a few seconds it comes up with a dos screen and some error text.  I didn't write it down.
I've had this happen on two different images with two different game titles.

Been awhile, but i also have this working with dragons lair, its a silent boot to the game with a splash screen.

KingofMetal79:
Cool! Did you achieve it using the method stated above? And if so, do you mind listing the command/pathway? Many thanks

rablack97:
yeah same method

this needs to go in your autostart.sh

clear
/opt/retropie/supplementary/runcommand/runcommand.sh 0 _SYS_ daphne ~/RetroPie/roms/daphne/dle21.zip
emulationstation #auto

Zipped roms go here, I can't remember why, but i had to create a roms folder inside of the daphne folder which contains the dle21.zip, even though the command above does not reflect the additional roms folder.

\\RETROPIE\roms\daphne\roms

Finally got back to setting up a Dragon's Lair image.

Your info above did NOT work.

at the command prompt-
sudo nano /opt/retropie/configs/all/autostart.sh

Replaced the contents of the file with-
clear
/opt/retropie/supplementary/runcommand/runcommand.sh 0 _SYS_ daphne ~/RetroPie/roms/daphne/lair.zip
emulationstation #auto

saved and exited the text editor.

NOTE- I did have to set the splashscreen to disabled in the retropie menu otherwise it came up with the same black screen message like advancemame does when setting up single boot.

When the system starts up it will attempt to launch dragon's lair in daphne then comes up with a daphne error stating-
Could not open frame file: /home/pi/RetroPie/roms/daphne/lair.zip/lair.txt

I found a lair.txt in the lair.daphne folder so I put it inside the lair.zip.
Still the same error when it attempts to boot up directly.

NOTE- Dragon's Lair IS running properly when it boots from the Retropie menu.
I am using the "ComicBook" theme which is actually quite cool, just learned of it today.
