Fix failure on launch with no external drive #85

Closed lo-co closed 8 years ago

lo-co commented 8 years ago

The whole system fails if there is no external drive attached at Controller::Pre-Launch Init. We need to redirect logs or any other necessary file output (or just not write to files that don't exist). OR, we need to provide a failure indicator to the user so they no why the system is not running.

If the drive is not there, this should redirect to C. There is plenty of space.

I don't think there is a way to tell the system this as everything is independent...

lo-co commented 8 years ago

This is a configuration issue. If the user does not have a drive and they intend to write to one, this will always fail....
