Hacking Can't remove HDD prompt in USB GX Loader

[Smiro]

Hello all,
I am trying to remove the "Waiting for HDD, press B to cancel or A to use SD" prompt during startup of USB GX Loader. I have turned on SD card mode in the settings and disabled mount USB at launch but the prompt continues to appear. If B is hit or the timer runs out, the settings need to be restored again. Does anyone have any other suggestions? If so, it would be much appreciated. Thank you!

Oops, sorry. I have nothing plugged into USB. Using SD only. Should have made that clear.

Either wait for the next gx update, or use a usb hdd, or in the meantime try a dif loader

Is there a fix in the next update?

Can you confirm how usbloader gx is being launched? Have u installed it in priiloader and are you launching it that way? If so, can u try launching via the hbc and check if the problem persists?


More info from the legend blackb0x below:

I think the guys installed the loaders DOL to Priiloader instead of uneoboot.dol, which results in Priiloader keeping an outdated meta.xml file installed to your NAND

So when he reboots his Wii it'll load that outdated meta.xml, which either has arguments disabled or has SD card mode disabled

That or he's got a hidden partition at the start of his SD card, so the loaders not updating meta.xml file because the paths are all screwed up. And that can be confirmed by checking the custom paths to see if they say SD:/ or USB8:/

If he has installed the loaders DOL to Priiloader then this would be the fix > https://wii.hacks.guide/priiloader-usage.html#autobooting-with-priiloader

Okay, did a clean extraction of r1281 and it worked. I'm puzzled as to why ....lol
I did get it from a different source. Thank you very much!
