Hacking FSGetMountSourceFailed when trying to use Homebrew Launcher

[tarumbo83]

I finally decided to try and do some Wii U hacking so I set everything up (I'm on 5.5.1) and I get FSGetMountSourceFailed whenever I try to boot into anything. The name of the error would indicate a problem with my SD card but everything else can read it just fine so I have no idea. I'm too lazy to self host but I've tried both NWPlayer's github and loadiine.ovh and they both launch the exploit then give me this error. Any help?

SD card formatted correctly?

Too lazy to self host... Pshhhhh

What do you mean by formatted correctly? Folder structure or formatting type? It's FAT32 if you mean the latter, I followed the sticky thread perfectly in terms of that if you mean the former.

Hmm try redownload the HBL/loadiine files, or try another SD. Not all SD cards are created equal, some simply don't work well on Wii U.

That's unfortunate, this is the only SD I have

Check if the partition mapping is GPT or MBR as well. It has to be MBR. If that doesn't work, use SDFormatter4 and start over

Another good tool is rufus or RMPrepTool

Okay, so a few updates:
Checked, it is MBR.
SD card works in vWii (I don't know how to test it in Wii U mode but I assume it'd be the same result), only thing it doesn't work for is launching Wii U homebrew.
Any suggestions? Desperate to get this to work

Use this:
https://github.com/dimok789/homebre...nload/v1.2_RC3/homebrew_launcher.v1.2_RC3.zip

Also, use loadiine.ovh

I'm an idiot.
I had the folder structure for the HBL wrong.
I'm so sorry

Did I call you an idiot?

I get this error personally a lot; as I am personally ejecting and reinserting the SDcard a lot. Usually I just turn the system off eject and reinsert and try again. Do not panic people who might be getting this usually it is the simplest thing.

I don't get this at all!

One of funniest reasons this might happen:

• You smartass forgot to insert the SD Card.

 

[tarumbo83]

It still doesn't work...
I fixed the folder structure

Bumping this thread... any help?

Try blowing dust out of your SD Card port (fixes it for me).
Also, I don't think your folder structure is a problem, "FSGetMountSource failed" means that it failed to actually mount and read from the SD Card as a whole.

Fixed it, just had to blow on my SD card slot
