From a GBA temp thread:

"The highest reported working partition is currently 512gb."
But still, any hard drive could not work.

Well, I've created a couple partitions on a 1TB drive and it sees both of them so probably almost limitless within reason. It would let me use the whole terabyte before I partitioned if I wanted.


EDIT: well it said I could use all of the drive but perhaps it wouldn't, I just didn't hit format. It saw 9xx GB though, the whole drive.

I have USB Loader 1.0 working.

So i just need the "USB-Loader_v1.1.dol" to make this new version happen? ie. I dont need to mess with CIOS36 any further?

Use WBFS tool to place the iso images on the flash instead of having to do it through the Wii.

I have a bad (misbehaved) laser and i did the pot mod yesterday so i would rather not risk more damage, especially with playing ssbb.

=== Usage ===
Before using wbfs tool, you must initialize the drive. Preferably pre-format your USB drive to FAT32.

'X' in the following examples represents your drive letter, for example, G.

*init the partition:
wbfs_win.exe X init

*estimate the size of the iso on the USB drive
wbfs_win.exe X estimate <your_wiidisc.iso>

*add an iso to your partition
wbfs_win.exe X add <your_wiidisc.iso>

*list the wiidisc that are on the wbfs, you will get the DISCID, game name, number of wide sectors used, and number of GB used.
wbfs_win.exe X list

*count the number of wide sectors / GB available on your partition
wbfs_win.exe X info

*build Homebrew Channel directories for all the games in your partition
This will actually make a directory for each game with the DISCID of the game,
copy the icon.png and boot.dol of the current directory, and make a meta.xml with the name of the game
wbfs_win.exe X makehbc
Then copy all the directories in the apps directory of your sdcard.

*remove a disc from wbfs
wbfs_win.exe X remove DISCID

*extract an iso from wbfs
wbfs_win.exe X extract DISCID
Just added Resident Evil to my usb drive and it took about 9~12 minutes.

Took me a while to find this, i thought people would be more excited about being able to copy instead of wear out the laser.

Cheers!
