        Do you have enough disc space left on your sdcard ?
        WinSCP should be able to look/transfer the file, try doing it after exiting RetroArch.

          @mitu I have enough disk space. After exiting retroarch, the contents of the file are the same. Can you show me yours runcommand.log file?

            It should look similar to this, including the messages showing the core shutdown:

            ...
            [INFO] [Core]: Unloading core..
            [INFO] [Core]: Unloading core symbols..
            

            Your log stops before the core is loaded/game is started.

              @mitu I tried to run another system (psx) and runcommand.log looks like yours. It looks like lr-px68k doesn't write to the runcommand.log file.
              in retroarch/options/logging i set verbose logging and logging to file.
              /opt/retropie/configs.hdmi/all/retroarch/logs/retroarch.log
              this is log when game won't run:
              link text
              and this is log file when i removed read permission, and game loads correct:
              link text
              I don't see any difference

                I suspect the the folder override you saved for x68000 has an impact on the behavior and the logging file being smaller:

                ...
                [INFO] [Overrides]: Content dir-specific overrides found at "/home/pi/.config/retroarch/config/PX68K/x68000.cfg".
                ...
                

                Can you try renaming the file, just for testing, to see if this changes the core's behavior ?

                  @mitu you were right. after deleting a file, the log is saved correctly. But this does not fix the problem with the sram.dat file

                    That was kind of expected and it looks like a core issue.
                    The logs show that the disc images are properly set into FDD0/FDD1, so the only explanation for your problem would be that the sram.dat is corrupted between games.
                    As a workaround, you could delete the sram.dat file between runs, using an onstart script for runcommand.

                        @krinasam I'm not familiar with drastic, maybe other forum user has an idea.
