is there a way to install from the hdd instead of sd?

[ulao]

It seems the wup installer is only looking for the install folder on an SD, I want it to look on the HDD? IS there another tool that will do this?

You can install wup installer gx in the homebrew shop

Wup installer doesn't install from HDD only from SD card.

Things can't be installed onto your SD card, only the hdd or a USB. When installing homebrews n such you should get a option to install on USB or hdd

this is backwards from the questions.

I want to install games from HDD ( install dir ) to HDD. I'm learning quickly that there is no way around this. Well other then this wiiu helper tool, that is one way to do it ( sort of) but it will not run if my HDD is installed in to the wiiu.

ok I got it...


1) FTP what you want to your USB /install folder
2) run nusspli
3) Choose install content

now all your files are sitting right there to be installed.

Mind you this is no faster then copying to SD first, but if you want to by pass the middle man, this is the only way I found that works.

I've always founf the SD card way of installing games really stupid. Wish a better USB to HDD installation method would come around. We have Custom firmware, so what's the issue? Nobody to write a USB installer or what?

Please make a new topic once you're finished and it's ready for release.

But how would you copy to hdd? I think my solution is the only one possible Unless you mean using wup. I think nusspli works fine. .
