r304 wiiflow ini settings and folder problem

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. option to run wiiflow from specified partition/location??
2.
3.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

I want to be able to install wiiflow to sd and have 3 partitions on my usb hdd 
for example (1xfat 1xntfs 1x wbfs on 1X usb HDD)

but every time it loads it auto installs a wiiflow folder to the fat partition 
of the usb hdd and uses this to store the cover info and settings ini's and 
compleatley ignors the SD card. evein after selecting parition in wiiflow 
settings are not saved!. i want it to store this on the sd card. i have copied 
these folders to the sd from the USb HDD. and still it auto sets up on the usb 
hdd fat partition.

i was upgrading from r92 version and this issue was not a problem!!! 
have deleted all of r92 version and still no joy!!.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
r301 and r304 (thought is was a r304 issue so tested r301 and same issue)

Please provide any additional information below.
can you fix this bug please!!!!

or let me know how to alter this from always default loading to HDD fat 
partition instead of SD card???!!!!

    m_btnMgr.setText(m_config5LblPartition, m_cfg.getString("GENERAL", "partition", "WBFS1"));

m_btnMgr.setText(m_config5LblPartition, m_cfg.getString("GENERAL", "partition", 
"FAT1"));

This is by design. Wiiflow always install covers and settings to the first 
writable partition it can find. You can change this behaviour by doing two 
things:

1. Have the boot.dol in sd:/apps/wiiflow/boot.dol
2. Have a wiiflow.ini in sd:/apps/wiiflow/wiiflow.ini, and set the line 
data_on_usb=no
