      So i have a dualboot with Berryboot. Trying to mount my Windows 7 shared dir at boot up.

      Following this guide:
      https://github.com/RetroPie/RetroPie-Setup/wiki/Running-ROMs-from-a-Network-Share

      So i have edited Autostart.sh with this line
      sudo mount -t cifs -o username=me,password=12345 //192.168.1.2/romz /home/pi/RetroPie/roms

      The problem is...it doesn´t work. It never mounts and i can´t see my shared directorys content. BUT...if i run it directly....the same line....VIOLA it works.

      So, from what i have read...it can have something to do with that my internet is not ready. So the suggestion in the article is to use "Wait for network" in RASPI-CONFIG. And here is the problem...there is no "Rasp-config"...there isn´t even a "boot". Because i´m guessing berryboot unmounted it for some reason.

      So i don´t know how i can "Wait for internet" before trying to mount my Win 7 dir. I am completely stuck! And i really don´t know where it goes wrong. I have seen some logs in var/logs/ but don´t really know what to look for...to newbee at Linux.

      Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance. Sorry for the long post.
