      On pi3 latest retropie
      I haveing trouble running any sh file that point to an application in the ports folder, but only from external USB drive with retropie-mount folder. Doom, kodi whatver. When I try to run it gives
      Sh: 1: /home/RetroPie/roms/ports/"application name".sh: permission denied.
      It works fine running from the sd card. And the using the same drive on another pi works fine. I've tried running them from the "kodi" folder and it works. I then renamed the kodi folder to ports and same issue again. I'm lost.
