well today is my first day trying this hence I was out of town, and I only have used the wbfs.exe thru the command line, and it has worked flawlessly so far...!!

Nope. No dice guys... Now there's something strange happening. I place the isos on the drive after I init and go to the wii. It doesn't read them.
I rip Wii Sports. I go to my PC. It recognizes the isos I burned, but not the wii sports I ripped. WTF is going on... :/
I must ask... Is there some step I'm missing? Should I be doing make HBC? I'm completely dumbfounded by this...
No you have to
wbfs.exe init
then you have to
wbfs.exe add
and that's all, then you just plug it in your Wii, turn it ON and load the USB loader
QUOTEhave 4.0, preloader.29, cioscorp and usb 1.1 and all the games load up in the disc channel i have 4.0 fw the vc games load up nicely but i cant get any usb hard drives/thumb drives to work. I have tried 3 different usb external hard drives from 80gb upto a 300gb and a 16gb thumb drive and a 8gb thumb drive everything gives me a "usb initialization failed ( ret -6)" or something along those lines with a ret-6 error at the end.. everyone talks about ret-1 errors but no one has said what ret 6 is for??? same thing about the hard drives not being compatible????

A: 512gb max for now.

I don't see how it could be hard drive since I've ripped Wii Sports and can play that. I figure if I can do that, I should be able to place stuff on the HD. Somehow the normal process just isn't working for me... I know for a fact I've been doing everything right. Heck, I've been doing it right for days now. (putting the drive letter issue asside...)
QUOTE(Reaprar @ Apr 3 2009, 05:24 AM) Sorry if this sounds stupid, but I'm having a little trouble here.
I have everything up and running, however, I have a 1TB HDD, and I already have about 100GB of stuff on this thing, is there no way to make the partition seperate so that it doesn't erase my stuff?
Backing up 100GB would take all day.. So I'd really like to know if there's a way to avoid that.
