I tried searching the site and google, but did not get any good response.
dol files are like exe for windows, they are the files that the wii runs. Games are made up of a dol file or two on the disc. There are some games that load the main dol then reload the IOS causing the USB loader to crash then try to load the game dol. To fix this, some loaders are implementing a technique where you copy the game dol to your SD card then have the loader load the game from there so it doesnt crash on the IOS reload
Thanks for that. Your response was very helpful.
So, if my games do not crash when loading from a USB drive, I do not need to bother about them.
I thought it was some way of running the game without the need of the actual game copy.
