Are you referring to the Storage Compatibility section? That section seems to be about USB drives for use with backup loaders which are typically compatible with GPT-partitioned drives. |
I am referring to https://wii.hacks.guide/key-information and no that is not correct, the Wii does not support GPT in any capacity. |
I know you're referring to that page, but which part of that page are you referring to? The only part which mentions USB is the Storage Compatibility section. The Wii might not support GPT but individual homebrew programs can. |
Correct me if I'm wrong but I don't think libfat supports GPT which is what all the ancient homebrew is written with. |
Libogc still uses libfat. |
Yes I am referring to the storage compatibility section. This goes for both SD card and USB. |
Description
Fullmetal5/bluebomb#16 Bluebomb is incompatible with GPT-partitioned drives. This should be mentioned in the guide because if you try to use a GPT drive, you will receive an error message stating that the USB drive failed to mount.
