07:00 Step 7: FTP cores files to SL and set up roms directory:
8. If booting roms from USB drive: root directory\mnt\disk

Instructions: Just make a roms dir on your usb stick. Then plug it into the Steam Link (make sure the apps folder with the apps from before aren't there or else they will over right the installed apps every time you boot up with the usb stick in the port) then boot up the USBMount app.

The screen will flash black and bring you back to the SL menu.

08:42 Step 9 (rewind for 8): Run RetroArch!

(if running from USB: load up your core then go to the root of the device. Your USB stick with your roms will be found under these directories: root directory\mnt\disk)
