@game_rat: AFAIK, Postloader still uses cIOS even in a NEEK environment, which kinda defeats the point of launching Wii titles with native IOS in NEEK...if I'm wrong, please advise.

it will be difficult mentally transitioning from USB Loader GX - it's been good to me for many years!
Also, a deal breaker for me with GX is that any real nand channels that you launch will not have access to USB. For example, if I launch WiiMC channel (installed on real nand) from GX, i can't play music located on my USB because the drive isn't recognized. Same with emulators or anything else that needs access to USB. Postloader does not have this problem.
Why don't you just put the emulators and WiiMC on SD or HDD and use forwarders? I have WiiMC and ScummVM on sd:/apps/ and music/ROMs on USB.
By "disc based images" do you mean actual disc copies or are you talking about images saved as a file (wbfs)? And are you only talking about NEEK usage? My kids have Just Dance 3 & 4 and each have DLC. I've got wbfs images on USB and they run fine even using the DLC. Now if you're saying it won't work with EMUNand or NEEK then my kids might not like me as I'm trying to setup emunand myself.@game_rat: AFAIK, Postloader still uses cIOS even in a NEEK environment, which kinda defeats the point of launching Wii titles with native IOS in NEEK...if I'm wrong, please advise.
@XDel: How would that help? NEEK support for Wiiware/VC in USB Loader GX is pretty much flawless.
@GreyWolf: I don't have any problems with WW/VC, just native Wii disc-based images as described earlier, which was the reason for wanting split NANDs in the first place. I'm rapidly coming to the conclusion that the only viable solution is two hard drives. I'll grab and post a syscheck, but I'm 99.99% certain it's in good shape. Just Dance sans DLC does indeed work 100% on IOS57 patched - it's only when you involve DLC that you start encountering random freezes with cIOS (discussed to death on past forums for years and years, and NEEK is the only solution I've found yet that actually works).
