    Any suggestions for this?
    I made an sd card with a run.brs containing print"hello"
    it is a 256MB sd card so when I try to look with dir sd:/ it says there no such file/dir
    if I take a video onto the card it plays well after boot

    your script has to be called autorun.brs for it to run.

    You should be able to do a dir sd:

    or just dir /

    From the shell.

    ok but still if I try command dir it lists just rokus ROM
    not my SD card
    I have tried dir:/, dir / dir sd: dir sd:/

    and I figured out an interesting thing!!!

    if I boot roku without card I cant mount it after and therefor dir command can't find it
    if I take my scrips to the card and the film at booting roku starts the film and can't command roku till I reboot it
    if I make a blank autorun.brs  than I can command my script and see debug console:))))))))

    You can't get directly to the shell if a script is running, and if you put content on the card, the autorun script it memory runs. So, you need to do as you did, put an autorun script on the flash card that's blank and it will exit to the shell. Or, you could put your content in a subfolder.

    That is incredibly useful information, Lyndon, and something I've been trying to sort out for hours!  If it is documented someplace please point me to it, since there is probably more critical information there I need to know.

    Some of the shell related items aren't documented as well as they need to be. We're working on improving that. What is it that you're trying to do?
