I have the retropie with fat32 partition to change the roms using a secondary partition….I make with this steps:
1-install fresh image of retropie
2-expand the partition and uodate retropie
3-using partiton wizard reduce the extended partition (ext4) of retropie (you need 4Gb of space for retropie and future updates) and format the new partition on fat32 (you cant access to this partition using windows, you need bootice (32or64bits) in bootice you click on parts manage and select thee third partition (maked by you) and press set accesible….now you can put your roms on your maked third partition….when you finish our manage of your roms go to bootice, parts manage, and set accesible the boot partition (first partition) of the sd.
4- You need mount the third partition on your etc/fstab file like other partition using winscp (wifi) or console
5-reboot and enjoy!!
((the process is easy when you have the partition mounted and maked because you only need set accesible the third partitin using bootice to manage your roms and restore boot partition to run retropie))
I try to explain the process to you using my english :| sorry for my bad english ;)

The new versions of retropie use this pair mode “when you plug the cable the joypad sync” you can try to install the old method using this tutorial but I dont know the results….

Thanks herbfargus for your reply!
(I try to make the fat partition on sd card to copy the roms because my friends dont know make a sftp connection and whit this partition is too easy for them)
I resolved my problems if anyone need I write the solution here:
1-Retropie and binary updates are install with 4Gb (enough space)
2-You can use Paragon Partition Manager to resized the expand ext4 partition of retropie (in windows)
3-In new jessie versions (3.3 and more updated) the uid=1000 gid=1000 for this reason the option line of fstab look like this
auto,users,rw,uid=1000,gid=1000 0 0
to mount usb ((using them I can save/load without any problems))

Thanks again herbfargus!!

If you connect one or more usb stick with roms ((unmounted)) the system automatically make a backup of the rute and roms you have in flash drive to access more quickly and this files have your disk space (if you unplug the usb stick you see the same roms tittles on emulators for this files reason)
Solution:
1-If you connect the raspberry with wifi use WINSCP to access to the files and dellete the files in the rom folder of internal raspberry memory ((remenber this files are only shortcut you can dellete then for free space on disk))
2-If you dont have wifi install new image of retropie (and remenber if you connect usb stick unmounted the system make a shortcut backup

Sorry for bad english but I try! ;)

rdhanded2 read this you need expand file system

[oleguer]

You can! Try using WINSCP to acess to raspberry pi files if you can use wifi….or use the terminal (connect keyboard to usb port and press F4 to open terminal) and edit them with sudo nano /etc/fstab add the permisions to fstab and lucky!

[oleguer]

The code of theme I found in other forum….. but only you need is edit the file /etc/emulationstation/themes/simple(or other)/(((SYSTEM)))/theme.xml
with the code I post and you do the theme like attachment

[oleguer]

I think atimmins you need have root permisions for save and load try this…. edit the fstab on etc/fstab Only add this
If you try to move to one internal partition:
/dev/mmcblk0p2 / ext4 auto,users,rw,uid=pi,gid=pi 0 1
The partition of memory Mount Point Format Permisions (I dont know really)
When you use usb stick mounted:
UUID=1ADF-0D47 /mnt/usb1 vfat auto,users,rw,uid=pi,gid=pi 0 0
My usb stick Mount Point Format Permisions (I dont know really)
The “only” think you need is take the root permisions for pi default user This is work for me…. You try! And lucky! Thanks and sorry for bad english ;)

[oleguer]

you finally got it?? barbudreadmon or windjammersfan?? I try to configure controls of pifba with analog & d-pad now but I cant do this!

[oleguer]

What you do to can use autosave/autoload from usb?? I dont know what you do!? thanks & sorry for bad english ;)

EDIT:
Problem Solved!!
I solved the autosave/soad problem when I take the permisions for all users I edit the information of fstab (etc/fstab) using this:
UUID=1ADF-0D47 /mnt/usb1 vfat auto,users,rw,uid=pi,gid=pi 0 0
Myflash drive Mount Point Format Permisions for all users ((This I dont know really))

And now I can save & load when I like Thanks for the forum!!!

[oleguer]

Can configure the options with 2buttons?? (For example input_disk_eject_toggle_btn = “1+3” (“L2+R2”) As??
How many other commands can write in the config file to configure more options?? Like savestate, loadstate etcetc Anyone have a list of this options?? Thanks and sorry for bad english ;)
