@davidr said in retropie-mount automatic mount method now working properly - emulation station is missing some consoles:

Now when I boot all consoles disappear and all I see are my colections with 0 games in them. Seems like I need to keep all the roms on the sd card so whats the point of doing this in the first place.

Again, the same advice - restart ES once the startup finishes. If your ROMs show up, then you need to delay the ES startup until your drive is mounted and the USB rom folders show up.

One could use /etc/fstab to mount a network drive replacing the use of autostart.sh~

and external hard drive

thanks, it took a while but now is done :)

I think i give it up. :(
The automatic method doesn't work for me.
Everything should be correct mounted, but the games don't show up.
