So I have two harddrives connected to my WiiUs back USB ports:
1. For Wii U games/injects.
2. For vWii. I have two partitions on it: FAT32 for homebrew and GC games and NTFS for wii games and other stuff.
I am using Aroma and its plugin to block format HDD message. I also use HideHDD app.
My goal is to have them both always connected to Wii U AND I want to be able to use second HDD in vWii mode as I did with original Wii.
I want to be able to boot vWii homebrew such as USBLoaderGX or Wiiflow from FAT32 partition.
I couldn't get it work properly so far. I have tried different setups:
1. Top USB - vWii HDD, bottom USB - WiiU HDD. Results: unable to select USB FAT32 partition in HBC to load homebrew. So have to use SD card to load USBLoaderGX or Wiiflow. Both loaders are able to initialize USB and play Wii/GC backups. My large complicated Wiiflow plugin set is still on FAT32, so unable to use it in this arrangement.
2. Top USB - WiiU HDD, bottom USB - vWii HDD. Results: now I am able to select USB FAT32 partition and I can force to load USBLoaderGX and Wiiflow BUT both loaders are unable to initialize USB HDD, so unable to see or play anything from USB HDD partitions.
3. I can properly use vWii HDD only when I unplug WiiU HDD.
Does anyone have same issue?
