Under jailer, readdir/stat on / can stall the UI via /proc and /sys. Do not offer "/" as a drive, redirect root back to the safe drive list, and skip virtual FS nodes if root is enumerated.
Jail HOME/XDG paths often miss the app package; extension filtering hides files when no matching core is selected. Point defaults at package .config/retroarch and internal storage, disable extension filter by default, and list app config/downloads in the drive list.
