   Alright. Trying Laka as a front end for the video game consoles for the kids.

     Yes, the USB disk is going to contain the whole OS, so that I can make one less than 4MB file different each time.

     Wasteful.

     Lakka looks like it'll do all but one of the things I want.

     I can't figure out how to make it automatically scan the attached USB drive on boot (and as a byproduct it appears to be showing ROMs that no longer exist after that drive is removed, I think)

     Any tips?

     For now, I'm going to make it the responsibility of The Children to keep track of which flash drive they have connected and to keep there menus clean.

     I'm *positive* that this will result in chaos.
