Raspberry Pi: RetroPie

This Gist contains scripts to extend the provisioning of a fresh install of RetroPie by configuring:

• WiFi
• Keyboard
• BitTorrent Sync

Installation

1. You can run the entire installation by changing the environment variable values for WPA_SSID and WPA_PSK. You will need to connected to the internet via ethernet in order to be able to curl the script to your Pi, but once run you should be able to remove the cable.

   export WPA_SSID=wifi_name; export WPA_PSK=wifi_password; curl -s -L http://go.trav.sh/pi_retropie | bash

2. Once you check to see if everything ran correctly, reboot the system:

   sudo reboot

install.sh

#!/usr/bin/env bash
