Using relative path for PAK files

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Currently it seems that the PAK files path are hardcoded and had to be
installed on the root of the SD card 
x:\ID1\PAK0.PAK.

It will be desirable to make it work with a relative path so we can install
install it on a subdirectory when we use for example the Homebrew Channel.
Ex. x:\apps\quake\ID1\PAK0.pak.

Having it under /quake/ID1/PAK0.PAK makes it ready to use mods, for which you 
would
use /quake/(mod)/(etc.)

It should be cool that should have a ingame mod select, maybe similar to the 
Load of
the game..

That should be nice, is there a way to do it?

I still can't figure out how to do this.

Putting the id1 folder in the apps/quake folder doesn't work, or in 
<root>/Quake.

Where does this alternate path go?

The discussion here is about where we _could_ put the path for convenience, 
currently
the only option is root:/ID1/PAK#.PAK

I really think that every homebrew ever made should allow for storing the data 
where
you want. It's not something you see often, though.
