# Installing RetroPie in OSMC

<https://github.com/RetroPie/RetroPie-Setup/wiki/OSMC>

The script:

*   requires `pv` 
*   assumes you're running from /home/osmc as user osmc 
*   outdated now

# Debian Bullseye
* Hack retroarch to force own_sdl=0
* Use the launcher https://github.com/hissingshark/retrOSMCmk2 but note [Issue #21](https://github.com/hissingshark/retrOSMCmk2/issues/21)

# Auto-mount ROMs from CIFS

## Configure AutoFS

sudo apt-get install autofs

`/etc/auto.mediasys`

/auto/mediasys -fstype=cifs,rw,credentials=/etc/auto.xbmc.credentials,iocharset=utf8,uid=osmc,gid=osmc ://media/mediasys

Add to `/etc/auto.d/whalebarn.autofs`

/- /etc/auto.mediasys --timeout 15 browse

This combination mounts `//media/mediasys` as `/auto/mediasys`.

## Reconfigure EmulationStation

`/etc/emulationstation/es_systems.cfg` using

:%s%/home/osmc/RetroPie/roms/%/auto/mediasys/games/library/%g
    
 in vim:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
