Running Home Brew Apps Off USB

Hi guys I have just installed Homebrew! It works great! I currently have one app which is Homebrew Explorer. Basically I want to know whether or not I can run apps like Mplayer, GeeXboX and Emulators off my 2gb USB flash drive. The reason I want to use the Flash Drive is because the only SD card that I can use is only 16mb and doesn't have any more room for apps.

Thanks Guys!

Yeah, I'm sure you can. Try it and see.

Emulators and MPlayerCE work just fine with USB devices. (There is also an optional USB 2.0 cIOS that's compatible with MPlayerCe)

Some other apps and games may not work with USB though.

SO how do I actually do it? how do I get them to show up in the Homebrew Channel? How do I add this cIOS?
Thanks for the replies

The cIOS i don't think is supported here...You'll have to google it.

As for getting apps to appear on the HBC, you need to make a folder on the root of your device called apps. Then, you put the app you want to use inside of that folder. For instance, if I wanted gecko os, my device would look like this:

ROOT/apps/gecko_os/boot.dol,icon.png, etc...

Does that make sense?

The USB2.0 cIOS is supported here. It is waninkokos fail that isn't. I believe the link to the installer is on the mplayer CE page.

Oh, sorry. :P
I'm dumb. I don't use MPlayer or DVDx's functions very often...My bad.

No problem, but I can see your confusion.

there is no need for USB 2.0 cIOS for loading homebrew off usb, just set up the flash drive like the SD card (apps folder etc.) and dont have an apps folder on the inserted SD card, or dont have an SD Card in at all. then load HBC and it'll load stuff from USB.
