Barebones is no longer recommended.

Presently we recommend Batocera for all new Raspberry Pi Sinden users going forward.

Please note that Barebones 9.1 is now woefully obsolete.  Our intention was to wait for an official RetroPie image for Raspberry Pi 5 to be released before building Barebones on top of that, but several years later that still hasn't materialised.

The information given here is still valid for those who still wish to use Barebones on a Raspberry Pi 4, however be mindful that, as the Raspberry Pi OS version it was built on is now deprecated, it is not easy to bring the image up-to-date.
