The ones that need your SD card inserted are 'forwarders', which are just blank channels that load a .wad from your SD card. This makes upgrading REALLY easy because you just replace the WAD on your SD instead of uninstalling the old channel and installing a new one. It also means that you need your SD card inside the wii to use the channel though.

The ones that need your SD card inserted are 'forwarders', which are just blank channels that load a .dol from your SD card. This makes upgrading REALLY easy because you just replace the dol/elf on your SD instead of uninstalling the old channel and installing a new one. It also means that you need your SD card inside the wii to use the channel though.

Fixed

Otherwise really good explenation.

Ah yes, forgot that part.

I know someone had the code (with comments) on a Forwarder around here, haven't seen it for a while.
