Jedione,

I appreciate your input.  I understand how to set up AM, however I don't have a big enough SD card for the amount of roms.  I want to run everything off of an external hard drive. I can't figure out how to build AM off of the hard drive and then run it from there to my pi.  Any suggestions?  I downloaded floobs image to start with.  I can't add all my roms bc I don't want to go spend $150 or more on a 256gb sd card. I just want to run it from the external drive that I already own.  I hope this clarifies my question.....

Thanks!

General / HELP!! Attract Mode from External Drive

I hope there is someone out there that can help me or answer my question.....  I have a bunch of roms; so many that the only way I could POSSIBLY run them is with a 256gb micro sd card.  I don't want to go out and spend that kind of money on an sd card.  I have seen people burn specific images on an external drive and run attract mode from there, however I want to make my own.  I don't want to be stuck with someone else's image.  how can I do this?  Or is it possible to download an image like Rey's or Nachos, or Kevin's and add or delete roms from the drive and not the
Pi?  Does this make sense?  HELP!!
