Problem mounting device when using wm_config.txt

[GoogleCodeExporter]

I am trying to get my wm_config.txt working.  I want to always use IOS36 to 
install/uninstall wads.  IOS 36 does not have usb 2.0 support so I set 
FatDevice=usb.  When I run the app I am getting ERROR! (ret = -1) when mounting 
the device.  Then I am asked to Press any Button to continue but it just keeps 
repeating Press and Button to continue.  I can not even exit the app.  When I 
press the power button on the Wii to get out, I get a code dump.

This is the same error without the config file when using IOS36 and I select 
USB 2.0 Mass Storage Device.  I can only conclude that even though I have 
specified FatDevice=usb in the config file, the app is trying to mount the 
device as usb2.

I have attached my wm_config.txt file.  Thanks for your support...

Forgot to mention that I am running R23.

Stupid error there. Not getting the device menu if an automount fails will be 
fixed next release, but hopefully so will the usb issue. About the power down 
issue, does it always do that, or only when stuck in this loop? Also does it 
happen if you use the power button on the Wiimote? Unfortunately I can't 
recreate that issue so fixing that might have to wait.

cwstjdenobs thanks for your reply.  Yes I agree that the device menu should be 
displayed if the automount fails.  As for the USB 2.0 issue, there is nothing 
to be done here.  If I choose IOS36 then only USB Mass Storage Device will 
mount because IOS 36 does not have USB 2.0 support.  So the Error! (ret = -1) 
is correct.  This is to be expected.  It looks like FatDevice=usb is not being 
executed when using the wm_config.txt file.  I strongly suspect that the app is 
actually executing FatDevice=usb2 instead.  As for the code dump, it occurs 
with both the power button on the Wii and the power button on the Wiimote.  
With my config file I should think that this should be reproducible.  Hope this 
helps.

Just tested the new release.  Thanks for fixing this problem.  One thing I 
would suggest is that you add some informational messages while loading the IOS 
and mounting the device.  It seems to take about 6 seconds to load on my wii 
with external usb.  During this time the screen is blank and users may wonder 
what is going on.  Certainly not a requirement just a suggestion.  Thanks...

TBH I wasn't certain I'd fixed it, I just left what I'd done in there as I 
committed the new info for SM4.3 as I was certain you'd at least get the device 
menu. Just added output for the IOS and Nand emu (not that that's any good 
here). It's already got output for the fat device, but it flickers past quickly.

OK I do see output when mounting the device but it happens so fast that you 
would never know it was there.  In fact I can not even catch what it says.  So 
the delay must be in loading the IOS.  The message there should help out allot. 
 I look forward to the next release with the loading IOS message and also the 
allowance of wm_config in the folder that app was launched from.  Thanks...
