Which system version is your Wii U on? Mocha CFW only works with 5.5.0 and 5.5.1. If you manually updated to 5.5.2 without updating the browser to the 5.5.2 version, Mocha will work on 5.5.2 too.

So if I do a full update to 5.5.2 to my wiiu I can't use mocha anymore? (even if I launch mocha via haxchi?)

That post you quoted is outdated. You can technically use Mocha with 5.5.2 now using the new browser exploit, but it's very unreliable, and it will probably crash 50-70% of the time instead of loading Mocha.

Mocha can also be launched using Haxchi, but there's no reason to do that.

To summarize:
  1. If you use or plan on using Haxchi or CBHC, it's safe to update to 5.5.2. Personally, I still wouldn't do it because there's also no reason to update.
  2. If you plan on using Mocha as your CFW, don't update to 5.5.2, because the 5.5.2 browser is unreliable.

OH! I understand. My WiiU is outdated in 5.5.1 because I was using then with the browser exploit. Now I want to use Mocha (via Haxchi). For that reason it is more easy to me to do a full update, buy a game, install Haxchi (not CBHC) and then use Mocha. It that OK? Or I missing something in between?

There's no reason to update to 5.5.2. You should block updates if you haven't already done so.

Tbh there's no reason to use Mocha with Haxchi.
Assign "sysmenu" to a button or default in sd:/haxchi/config.txt before you install it to launch Haxchi CFW which does nearly the same as Mocha but faster.
For example:
Code:
default=sysmenu
a=path/to/hbl/hbl.elf
That would launch the HBL by holding A or Haxchi CFW by holding nothing while launching the Haxchi game.

I want Mocha to launch Loadiine from external HDD drive, that will have Wii and Gamecube games too. The WiiU games that aren't compatible with Loadiine I will install them to internal memory via WUP installer.

So is this dead
I won't call it "dead" but if you do, you would have to call Haxchi dead as well since both are released and working.
But I guess you're referring to the FAT32 stuff. Dimok is in his real life right now. So it's rather "frozen" than "dead".

Is the FAT32 fork safe to use? no data corruption?

It's safe as long as you get it working.
It's easy to use for Loadiine but a little harder to use with WUP Installer. Of course you should backup your savegames with SaveMii first.
And keep in mind that no larger than 2 TB drives are supported.
