      @AlexMurphy

      thanks for a second work around.

      right now just having all the roms in the megadrive folder it working. :)
      it works and thats all the matters

      I always thought the Genesis roms folder was just a shortcut to the megadrive folder. The genesis folder always had the shortcut arrow overlay on my SSH client. There's no need for separate folders unless you're splitting by region for some reason.

          you are correct in that thinking, but somehow that link is broke on mine, so i just moved the files over and it works.

            @ExarKunIv You should be able to re-make the symlink using ln -s <destination file or directory> <name of the symlink>
