I couldn't get my 2tb hdd to formatt using fmcb 1.953 so I made a new card with 1.966 and it formatted fine. Now the 1.966 file I downloaded didn't have opl in the boot folder but i copied my old file over to it on my pc. In Launch Elf it shows an opl.elf file on my mc0 and I can boot to that from launch elf but it's not showing up in the main menu when you first load up. What step am I missing?
 
I've never gone into fmcb configuration I'm a total noob. Anyway my hdd actually wasn't formatted right and my fmcb had launchelf (idk what version didn't check) but what I ended up doing was installing wLauncheELF build date 14\01\2019 and pasting that to my fmcb boot file on pc overwriting the old boot so now I loaded up wLaunchELF formatted drive and it worked. Opened opl to creat partition. Then installed fhdb and collies over a few isos to test and everything is working so far. I'll have to look more into the fmcb configurator but it all seemed confusing to me for now.

I just realized tho that was booting from fhdb so when I boot form fmcb I'll prob have to figure out the fmcb configurator setting like you said.

FMCB doesn't reading in mind. He don't know that You want launch this or this. Run FMCB Configurator and set new item, it was created for none technical people because all the rest can just edit "mc0:/SYS-CONF/FREEMCB.CNF". ;)

FHDB using the same file but located on HDD on "hdd0:/__sysconf" partition.
