    Hi all,

    I am having issues getting my Retropie to work with my NAS. I was able to get the Pi to mount my roms folder on boot which is great. I turned off the USB rom service but when emulation station (2.9.3RP) boots up it doesn't give me anything.

    the feeling I am getting is that its not querying the mount location for some reason. here is my fstab

    below is the LS of my network drive

    I am really stumped because It looks like it should work but it just doesn't. Any thoughts?

    I will post some technical specs below as per the "read first post" (https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first)

    Pi Model: Raspberry Pi 4 4GB
    Power: the out of the box one it came with (it has an official logo since i got it from a foundation member)
    Retropi version: 4.6
    USB devices connected: Keyboard and mouse combo and Xbox one controller

        I actually found the error.... I can 100% chalk it up to human error. I forgot to clean up autostart.sh after giving up and moving to my more familiar fstab.

          @Rainheart I usually find my ID10 errors shortly after asking for help as well. It's so often something stupid...
