      I've noticed a couple of folders in the roms folder do not correspond with the ones that are used with different emulators.
      The folders I've noticed are:
      coleco / colecovision
      gb / gb2players
      gbc / gbc2players
      sg-1000 / sg1000
      videopac / o2em

      The ones on the left are the ones used by the emulators according to the docs, but the ones one the right I haven't seen where they are used. Are these redundant/legacy folders that can be removed or am I missing something?

        It doesn't seem that these folders are part RetroPie - are you using a 3rd party image ?

          Mea Culpa.
          I am running original image. I think I ran a 3rd party image at one time, which caused the retropie-mount to set up all these extra folders.
          I did a complete reinstall also with a new usb stick and it looks good.

          Thanks,
          Do I add Solved to title or do you?
