1. You can't. 2. You can load SNES station with a MC exploit.

1. You can't. 2. You can load SNES station with a MC exploit, Swap Magic, or off a HD.
Q. From A Beast: Is it possible that I could create an iso of this snesstation disk and then instead of burning it transfer it to my HD and play it off of that? I don't have any swap method combined with my HD so this is really the only way I can do it unless anybody has any other advice for me.
A. From 2kwic: Report an offensive post
Well i know you can make it into a Iso file but it's really not worth puting it on hdd because you will need a disc with roms on it to play the games so i would just put it on a cd-r or a DVD-R and play it with swap magic

Well can't you just burn them to disc and boot Snesemu.elf from your MC exploit. That's why he was saying there isn't a lot of point in running SNES station off your HD. Sure you can do it, but the roms need to be run off disc anyway, so it's kinda pointless. I don't know what kind of modchip you have, but it should run SNES station straight off disc.

From wat i've read and been told, we need to boot the roms from a disc regardless of ftp etc, so wat i suggest if u have a chip, make a cd with the snes station as boot, and add watever roms u want to it, or use a swap method to load games once u got snes station running. think that all right, if i'm wrong someone please correct me.

You could transfer the snes roms to your HDD but you wouldn't be able to play them off the HDD. SNES Station doesn't have harddrive support. :( So there is no real point, like Tokijin said. It's dissapointing, I know.

But if you want to put roms on your HDD (of any kind) ditch ftp and just use PFS Explorer http://explorer.egama.eti.br/ You can get it there.
