[Wii U ] Couldn't create new files on SD during dosbox cli #94

Open cucholix opened 5 years ago

Some games like Command & Conquer, Red Alert, Abuse needs to create a temporal file to start the game properly, in the case of Command & Conquer a .swp file needs to be created, or in the case of Abuse a .tmp file, however for some reason it couldn't create the respective files because something is not allowing writting on SD.

Tried to create those files on PC and then copy to my SD but it seems they need to be created in the system in which the game is running.

On PC there's no problems.

Most strange is the SD is not locked, it actually store the saves created in dosbox.

What if you just do "start core" then mount the sd, then launch the games manually?
