Moonshell fixes freezing issues.

Moonshell (0.4 hacked) seems to fix my CF card.

Games I have tested are: Band Brothers, Animal Crossing, and Ouendan.

When Moonshell is not on my card, Band Brothers freezes at intro, Animal Crossing freezes in game, Ouendan freezes in game. If I put moonshell on the card and run it, all three games run fin with no freezing. Moonshell (0.4 hacked) does something to the structure of the CF card or unlocks something in the Supercard firmware that improves compatibility.

Can this be added to the next firmware update?

Run Moonshell or run the card?

I don't believe this for a moment. It screams "coincidence" to me.

Works every time though. Now I have to pin down what causes the games to freeze. So far it seems that every time I change something on the CF card, those troublesome supercard games freeze. But all I have to do is run moonshell first, reboot, and the games run fine.

EDIT: Also freezes up those games when I delete files from the CF card... but AGAIN... after running Moonshell, back to normal!

EDIT2: Files added do not affect it. Files deleted from the "end" (files that were added last) also do not affect it. Deleting from the CF card leaving "holes" in it (analyze with Disk Defragmenter) cause some sort of disturbance. Running moonshell corrects it somehow by modifying the structure of the CF card?
