Ops the complete thought was in my head I just forgot to write it all down.
My thought is during the loading of the program, all files that must reside on the internal memory are "Installed" (e.g. copied) during to the internal memory. This would make this process invisible to the user. They would just notice a large load time for the very first time they run the program.
We can minimize the load time by performing a "file exist" (getFileInfo) check for each file. Or write a flag to a file when the a successful install was completed therefore we write a true flag. Then check for the flag.
