      Hi folks,
      I Connected a hdd to put all my roms, snaps, saves .... and keep the base system into the microsd.
      This way I can update or test different retropie images developped by guys.
      to do this I created mount-retropie folder in the hdd. I then plugged the hdd and after an hour all my roms, saves, snaps, splash videos etc .... all my content from my microsd card was transferred into the hdd. I though it was awesome.
      Unfortunately after reboot, right after the splash video, during the ES logo, ES started to remap all the content from my hdd.
      This takes time. and every time I reboot ES remaps my hdd content.
      I then deleted my splash videos from my microsd card for a test, and after reboot, no video splash because ES remaps the content of my hdd after the splash screen.
      Any idea how to map once and for all the content of my hdd into my microsd?
      Thanks in advance for your help.
      Hardware Pi 3B, retropie, ES.
