step by step no but a general overview of what i did can be seen here https://pastebin.com/mAmEERyG thats all i can do. Its basically how i run it now until SFML gets an kms / drm backend so we can run it outside x again
you also have to understand that not all emulators from retropie can run under X there is a list of which can and can't on retropie forums. and this will only give you basic attract install you would still need to config some emulators and add attract themes emulators etc (i copied them from the hyperpie 2 base image which i booted on a raspberry pi 3)
also if attaching rpi4 to a 4k tv it's best to uncomment the xrandr resolution line so it sets 1920x1080 4k @30hz is very slow someone else noticed that using same instructions
