I'm trying to move all my GameCube backups to an external hard drive, but it keeps saying that /sys/boot.bin is missing when selecting the source folder. Is there any way to fix this? Is there a better method?

What do u mean? Gc injects saved to Wii U nand?
Or on vwii have on sd and trying to put on vwii hardrive ?
 
vWii hard drive.

And they are on sd card now?
Aren’t they just in game folder. Why not just drag and drop then on computer?
I don’t see where. Sys/boot.bin is coming from?
Or is there someway ur trying to do it on System without a computer?

Details details! How are you moving the data? With a PC? What are the steps you have tried?

I think you have to transfer each game one by one. The folder option is meant for transferring already extracted games (GCReEx format is extracted IIRC), not for transferring multiple games at once.
When you transfer them make sure you don't convert them to GCReEx or DiscEx format as these aren't recommended with Nintendont. Only clean dumps (maybe trimmed is OK) are recommended for best compatibility.

Okay,

I'm trying to move a folder of GameCube ISOs to my hard drive so that I can play them with Nintendont. I tried to use GameCube ISO Tool (by the same guy who made Wii Backup Manager) to open the folder that already contains the ISOs (D:/GCN/). However, when I select the folder, it gives me an error saying "D:/GCN/sys/boot.bin/ not found."

Darn. Is there a tool that can move them, or am I better off transferring them one by one?

There are no other tools for transferring GC games other than GameCube ISO Tool AFAIK. GCIT was only meant as a testbed for functionality to be implemented into Wii Backup Manager, but then the functionality was never implemented into that, so we're left with a very barebones tool.
Wiimms ISO Tools might do it but that's command line based.

Okay, thank you for the advice.
 
Why not just move the ISO from the SD Card to the USB HDD using your computer? Windows Explorer --> Copy --> Paste --> Wait ???
