a3495651f0 *Added support for starting .wbfs game files from fat32/ntfs partitions on a sector size > 512 (tested with 4096)
*modified libcustomfat and ntfs fragment fetch function to support >512 bytes per sector
*Added new ehcmodule (thanks rodries)
*Added real support of using both ports simultaniously without shutting down the other (thanks rodries for the ehcmodule works on this). There is no longer the limitation that the settings have to be on SD card for this. (ONLY HERMES CIOS)
*Moved a few settings to Feature Settings and added a new Hard Drive Settings
*Changed Wiinnertag path to only point to the path and not to the file. You must correct the path manually in custom path settings or reset you configs for this change or Winnertag won't work!!
*Removed a few compile warnings for devkitPPC R23

d625c5adfc *Added support for using USB port 1 (ONLY ON HERMES CIOS)
*Added support for using both USB ports at once (ONLY ON HERMES CIOS)

Big thanks to rodries for writing the necessary ehcmodules!

NOTE: You can change port of USB device in the Loader Settings. The loader currently does not support loading configs off port 1 (only from port 0)

If you select to use both usb ports the loader will switch between ports automatically, on demand. It is not possible to use both ports at once currently. Right now the wiilight blinks each time it switches the port. I will talk to rodries and see if we can disable it. Using the "both ports" option only makes sense in combination with "Multiple Partitions" option. In that case all games on all partitions from BOTH HDDs will be loaded. I think I don't have to say that switching between ports and loading all games is slower than normal mode with one port only in use. You might wanna just set one port and switch yourself when you need to. Well the option for both ports (automatic switching) is there for the lazy ones who don't like to hit the settings button ;).

2764ac6b76 *Added support for physical sector sizes other than 512 bytes per sector for wbfs partitions only! Others filesystems are currently still hardcoded in their libs. Tested with a 3TB drive with a sector size 4096 one wbfs partition (thanks dexter).
*Added initial source for support for virtual sector size other than 512 bytes per sector on wbfs partitions. This still doesn't work (not tested) and will still cause many code dumps because of some unfinished things. So don't use it yet.

*New ehcmodule for Hermes IOS versions. This gives a big boost in compatibility to usb drives using Hermes cIOSes. Now many drives should work with it. Hermes cIOSes have now probably the best compatibility to usb devices. (big thanks to rodries here) (more to come ;))

6022ad060d *Added ThreadedTask instance class for easy one time run operations on another thread
*Added Free Space show option to the settings (can be enabled even on FAT partitions)
*Moved partition free space determination to a ThreadedTask because it takes up to 10 seconds on FAT. This speeds up the build up of the main game menu (on start and on change from other menu) on all partitions.
*Removed double "waiting for slow HDD" screens
*Fixed scrollbar in settings

7bccfd2b17 *added loading screen
*Removed the console loading screen (no more console at all)
*Complete rework of device handle. You need to reset all your custom paths for this rev.
*Support for writing images/settings/... on any writable partition (FAT/NTFS/EXT). (Theoretically you can run the loader from NTFS only without the need of any other partition or SD if run from new forwarder channel, for example)
*Support for Primary/Logical partitions and GUID Partition Table (GPT)

Forwarder Channel in last revision was not using IOS58 (not sure about AHBPROT)
Here a corrected version (thx to Cyan):
