        @T33Hud if you could log in (local tty or with SSH) we should check the result of the mount command, looks like your /recalbox/share is in the RAM or some crap like that.

              @T33Hud As expected, you share is in RAM :
              tmpfs on /recalbox/share type tmpfs

              Can you cat /boot/recalbox-boot.ini (i'm not sure about the filename though)

                          @T33Hud Can you run /recalbox/scripts/recalbox-part.sh "share_internal" and confirm it replies /dev/mmcblk0p8 ?

                                        well, looks like i'd rather connect to your recalbox and check this by myself. But can't do that before Monday 8pm CET. We'd use teamviewer and you'd allow me having fun by SSH. What do you think ? unless you know how to open a port on your router to the recalbox SSH

                                            @hobbitlap Hi,

                                            First of all why don't you install the latest stable version ? I'm not sure you'll get support for the outdated beta version.
