[QUOTE="lordelan, post: 7951310, member: 359178"] Wow I didn't know that Horizon OS (Switch OS) can't see an ext4 partition and we can use [B]one[/B] card for both, Horizon OS and Linux this way. That's the best thing I've heard this week! This is even better. By changing the directory settings in RetroArch in Linux [B]and[/B] the Switch homebrew RetroArch[COLOR=#ff8000]*[/COLOR] we can have the following only [B]once[/B] on our SD card but use it from both OS and continue our savegames: [LIST=1] [*]roms [*]savegames/savestates [*]thumbnails [*]cheats (if needed) [/LIST] Only the cores would have to be stored twice and the main app of course as those are host system specific. That's pretty cool. While I'm in Ubuntu I can decide to play some Zelda: Link's Awakening on a GB core in RetroArch for Linux. When I'm done I save my game and turn the Switch off. The next day I'm in Horizon OS because I was playing some Mario Kart 8 Deluxe just when I decided to play some Zelda: Link's Awakening so I head to the HBmenu, launch RetroArch[COLOR=#ff8000]*[/COLOR] and [B]continue[/B] my savegame from where I left it in Ubuntu. Can't get any better than this. [COLOR=#ff8000]*[/COLOR]RetroArch homebrew still needs some time until it runs as good as other ports and for now you can't adjust the savegame directories for savegames (or directories in general). You could however point the savegame directory from Ubuntu's RetroArch to the same folder as the Switch homebrew uses (sd(fat32partition):/switch) [/QUOTE]
