Hacking Need help softmodding - been out for a while

[MC DUI]

Hi guys, been out of the Wii scene for some bit and I'm totally lost with the lingo/programs getting thrown around...

Currently I have the following setup -

- PAL Wii with original Wiikey modchip installed
- System firmware 3.2E
- Homebrew channel installed
- SD card with wad installer/remover, and geckoOS 0.1

Now what I would like to do is use a 320GB USB HDD that I just bought to load my ISOs going forward, rather than using my disc drive, as it seems my Wiikey is never going to support newer games.

I've read several guides on here, but they never mention anything about a wii with a modchip and homebrew channel installed, it all starts as tho you have a virgin Wii, and I'm not sure if I can skip steps or not...
Just a point in the right direction, and a few quick answers to my above question and I'm sure I can do the rest on my own.

Thanks in advance guys!

First off install this through the homebrew channel: http://gbatemp.net/index.php?showtopic=203862&st=0
Then install a usb loader (I reccomend configurable usb loader): http://www.gbatemp.net/index.php?showtopic=147638
Then install any ios's you need using this guide: http://www.wiihacks.com/other-faq-guides-t...downloader.html

Remember, if an application doesn't show up on the Homebrew channel, rename the .dol file in the folder "boot.dol" otherwise the Hb channel won't see it.
