Problem running on USB HDD when SD card inserted for other homebrew. #268

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1.Having the apps file & root file on USB.
2.Have an SD card in the Wii & run Genesis Plus GX 1.7 with Mega CD support.
3.If SD card is in it ignores the file on the root of the Hard Drive & 
re-creates folders on the root of the SD card. It is obviously searching for 
the root folder but doesn't seam to search for the one on the hard unless the 
SD card is out.

What is the expected output? 

It is obviously searching for the root folder but doesn't seam to search for 
the one on the hard unless the SD card is out. With the SD card in it 
re-creates them every time saying it is loading default settings, ignoring the 
already setup settings on the HDD.

What do you see instead?

I pull the SD card out every time. If I forget to I must erase the /genplus 
folder from the root of the SD card.

What version of the emulator are you using (official, SVN revision,...)? 1.7

Please provide any additional information below (Emulator settings, Console
setting,...) No specific settings.

Yes, it is normal, SD is default FAT device for libfat if both usb and sd are 
detected. The device were the app was loaded from is not taken in account by 
design choice.

What is the problem with having your config,saves,etc... on sd since you plan 
to leave a sd inserted ? Once they have been created, directories won't be 
recreated unless you delete it and it's perfectly fine to have roms on hdd and 
setup files on sd.

Absolutely nothing wrong with that for sure. I am not sure then whether about 
the screen shots. Would they save & load on SD or HDD as priority? What would 
be best?

Screenshots are ressources files as well, they will save and load from the 
default device.
