Hacking Can't see the WBFS drive

[Rezvonflux]

Ok, to all who've seen my last post, i've managed to get the Loaders (USB Loader 1.5 and CoverFloader) to load finally and have added them both to my v4.2U wii menu.

Now, i thought i ran both WBFS Manager and/or ncWBFSTool to both format a whole external USB HDD (40GB) and then actually move to PAL games over (SUPER MARIO GALAXY and SONIC RACING) succesfully. It even said so...

...so, plug in the external drive... turn the wii on... chose either the cloverfloader channel and it says theres no drive installed...
...or USB loader says the drive isn't formatted and when i try to, gives me and ERROR: No partitions found! ret= -6??


anyone have any ideas?

you sure you got your HDD in the right USB slot ?

does it matter if it's the left or right? really?
honestly think i've tried both

looking at the usb doors of the wii you have to use the one on the right to connect the hdd

yes, because only one is designed to work

if your wii is laying down flat, its the bottom port, if its standing up tall and proud, its the port on the right.

huh... go figure....
mine is standing up, and yes.... it's rightly plugged into the right port
