what do you mean by first and second? I tried it with the FAT32 being drive letter A and WBFS as drive letter W, but I did make the wbfs partition first.

Also I'm not that orginal poster, just find myself in the same situation

I'm a bit surprised by the priority given to fat support. Seriously : is it such a big deal to have a wbfs hdd ? What's more, the wbfs tools are excellent...

On the other hand, the support for Hermes' cioses seems to me very important, because his work appears to be much more inovative and stable than Wanin's. What's more, I'm a Rock Band player, and for now, I can't play DLC without the latest Hermes CIOS with its horrible uLoader.

I undestood this unity thing : one wiiflow to rule them all, but I still think that FAT32 support priority has been chosen because at that time, there was nothing else to add ;-) Time has changed.

I think same as you. But we are only two and now we are the minority. For this reason i have made a little implementation of cioses v5. Yes, the uloader version is more complete, emulator for savegame, VCWare loader and others, but for this support i think we must wait for a long time.

In any case we must thanks r-win for his effort and hope that he can assure it for the future.

Yes ! of course ! I didn't want to be a lamer or something. It is a great job that has been done by r-win and all the team !
Btw, while I see you, I wanted to thank you for your special build : grazie mille !

your FAT partition needs to be the first partition when repartitioning the drive in two, which has nothing to do with drives letter as your first partition could be Z:/ and the second could have F:/ just because its in alphabetical order doesn't meant its the first partition in the table

1TB drive split in 2

When making a partition delete the old one/ones which will leave you with 1 un-partitioned/un-formatted drive.....

Make a new FAT32 partition 500GB in size(half the total drive size), this will be the first partition, once done you will then have 1 partitioned section... with say G:/ as the drive letter and a 500GB section still un-partitioned......

Now select the un-partitioned drive and also make this a 500GB FAT32 partition, this with then be the second FAT32 partition with say the new drive letter N:/.

Now in a WBFS manager/USB Loader when creating a WBFS partition select the second N:/ partition to be formatted to WBFS as you want other home-brew apps to still be able to see and runs apps and what not of the first FAT partition

alot of partitions there lol

I had a feeling thats what you meant. I already have like 80 gigs of stuff on my wbfs so I'm probably just going to deal with wasting an SD card because I don't feel like backing all that up.

All of my games are in
USB:wbfs/game name [ID]/ID.wbfs

that is how i have mine set up on NTFS ..

You have to use 222 for NTFS

But let R-win do his job and when he does release it , it will be a good loader ..

There is some other fix or only fat/ntfs support ?

I think xabby666 was reffering to other works being incorporated into the main 1 wiiflow, like his Cios 222V5 support and vip's fixes perhaps.

@ Spidy its tough to say without knowing how you softmodded but in general i would make sure you have the proper cIOS's installed and start with a fresh/new install of wiiflow, I've never had wiiflow code dump on me once

I have found bug in cheat code management, like the impossibility to return to off the code enabled and applied one time. I've made some othe bugfix and optimization to my hermes v5 version, but i don't release now because i hope i can implement in the next offical release if there is no support for this cios.

Thats great news xabby666! Perhaps you can join the google code and be an official dev too, i did notice that bug in cheat management. Did you fix the problem r-win said was with the V5 compatibility so he can use it? ^^

My english is too bad. I said that i hope r-win fixed cheat bug. I'va found little problem with my implementation, and i've fixed them, relatively cios v5 implementation (one of this is that if you start wiiflow without a hd attached then if you attach it wiiflow give a -1 error, and another with setting disable ios reload to on). If next releas don't support v5 i want work for this support and release sources to r-win for his evaluation.
