"Q: Is there any advantage using FAT rather than a WBFS partition?
A: No."
i know it is about the file format, but...
what about : defragmentation and structure check (scandisk)?
besides the fact that i don't need some special app to mount my disk, i can check it out on linux, windows etc, and i can place other files beside my games without having to set a fixed size for each partition?

Can anyone confirm that SDHC support works within games when using this loader? Trying to do a bit of troubleshooting here. Also, should I be able to choose to load a game from more than just ios 222 or 223?

Ok can some please tell me what Im doing wrong because I've been trying to get this thing to work for the past 3 hours (running up and down the stairs) and im starting to get pissed off:

I have Configurable USB Loader installed on homebrew via SD card. And I am trying to get .WBFS files to read and load from USB 2gb Thumb Drive (just as a proof of concept for myself)

ON SD:

/Apps/USBLoader
/usb-loader/

Now according to my understanding in order for Configurable USB Loader to run on my USB Thumb Drive I have to delete all instances of config.txt from my SD card to force it to look for the config file on my USB drive.

I have thumb drive plugged into the SD slot closest to the side.

ON USB Thumb Drive (Formatted to FAT):

/usb-loader/
/wbfs/

My Config.txt inside USB:/usb-loader/ file looks like this:
--------------------------------------------
device = usb
partition=FAT1
ios=222-mload

# theme
theme = BlueMatrix

# gui
gui = start
gui_transition = fade
gui_style = flow
gui_rows = 2
---------------------------------------------

Yet when I run Configurable USB Loader from homebrew it says:

WBFS (or something like that): SD


Mounting Drive (30 sec)

Then times out.

What the heck am I doing wrong?!

and even before this I did manage to get it to target my USB drive, but when I tried to load the game it just said something like:

Using 222-mload switching........[FAT].....

then it just hangs there.

Also before while USB drive was being targetted properly I kept on trying to download the covers but it kept on saying it couldn't create dir...... but I had already created all the dirs : /usb-loader/covers, /usb-loader/covers/3d etc.

Ive been as thorough as I can. Can someone PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE help me! PM, EMAIL, Reply. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
