| # | |
| # On LG WebOStv, RetroArch only have access to a few jailed folders so to run games on a usb drive, | |
| # we need to 'merge' the USB mounting point with one of those jailed folders using OverlayFS. | |
| # The scripts on folder '/var/lib/webosbrew/init.d/' will run after every tv boot. | |
| # Remove the $STARTUP_FOLDER/$SCRIPT_TO_RUN_AFTER_BOOT and reboot to revert the change. | |
