Iomega Prestige Portable 500gb USB HDD.

Must be plugged BEFORE booting the Wii, otherwise USB Loader will give ret -1 (you'll have to shutdown the Wii, then boot and plug).

PROBLEM SOLVED: Using this dol forwarder solve the problem because it reboot the HDD while booting the USB Loader.

Everyone who get ret -1 occasionally should try the forwarder.

I have a Iomega Prestige 1TB and i have tried this channel forwarder. Only 1 time worked.
I think that, when the channel forwarder try to power on the hdd, he will wait ONLY a couple of second and then start the USB Loader. For me is too fast and he will not recognize the unit. What do you think on my theory?

Been hacking the source code to add a few debug messages. It seems USB Loader can't get the HDD size, and therefore exits with the "ret = -1" error (at least, that's what happens with my hardware)

I need to get a hand on IOS (mainly ipc.c) functions to go further ...

Are you willing or able to try partition that drive to something smaller, just to see if that makes any difference?

Hey guys, I need a little help. Each USB device I try I get this error...

Could not initialize USB subsystem! (ret = -6)

Anyone know what could be my problem?

I think that is the error returned if CIOS rev9 isn't installed.
Sorry can't really help more than that.

Yes, -6 error is lack of usb2 CIOS installed.

I have a Comstar Platinum enclosure, originally with 500gb hdd but using 120gb hdd, tried other hdd's and all results are the same. It will always give ret -1 unless the swap trick is used, in which case it seems to work fine.

There's also another thread here discussing some this problem, and where it breaks down in the code:
