How to get from Attract Mode back to Emulation Station.
« on: November 18, 2018, 12:31:16 PM »
I don't see a setup menu or any option. And when exiting Attract Mode it send me to command prompt. Do I tune off my power from there?

=setup menu / any option
depends on, what you want to configure

>AM itself
in AM : press TAB key

>emulation station
exit AM (so you are on commandline / bash) > type:
Code: [Select]
emulationstation
>RetroPie
exit AM > type:
Code: [Select]
cd RetroPie-Setup/

sudo ./retropie_setup.sh



=AM send me to command prompt
if you exit AM, you will land to bash (commandline) by standard. So that's correct



=Do I turn of power from there?:
it possible in commandline, if you type:
Code: [Select]
sudo poweroff
it's possible to power off automatic, if you exit AM:
start AM > press TAB key > General > Exit Command : sudo poweroff

or by pressing a hardware switch:
Here



=get from AM back to Emulation Station:
start AM > press TAB key > General > Exit Command : emulationstation
