This did not work for me. If it is just my install, then I am fine, but may want to mention the other location in the docs, since it is what is mentioned in the info file I mentioned above, and it does work in my case.
The 'other' location from the .info file refers to the BIOS files, not the samples. Same info from our docs is found also in the official core documentation. Note that RetroPie configures the 'system folder' to /home/pi/RetroPie/BIOS/.
If you have reset your RetroArch configuration - using the Reset menu in RetroArch - then the 'system folder' is empty and defaults to the ROM folder, which might be your case.
