 === grw0 partition ===
 Currently there is no known method to dump games with the writable partition (grw0) without the system initialising/modifying the filestystem. It may be best to keep unused grw0 carts unused (not inserted into a system) until a method is found. If the game box doesn't have "memory card required" on it (see images below), it is likely to be a grw0 cart, however this isn't a foolproof method.
