Uploading several files to PS2

Hi all! I've just set up compilers and connection PC-PS2 - everything works fine except I can't find out one thing - how to upload using inlink or xlink or any program multiple files to ps2's file system? For example I'd like to load PGEN with it's IRX and PGEN.DAT trhough PC-PS2 ethernet connection. How to do that? It seems that I can only load one file and that's all :(

I saw there is RAD HOST CLIENT but I don't understand how it works and why it was made.

Sorry for such n00bish questions, but I can't find answers anywhere! :( Thank you very much for reply! :)

you need to use host:myirx.irx to load them in the source and then build them up

so basically I won't be able to run pgen through inlink? And where does host refers to? To the folder where uploaded elf was? If my uploaded elf was in C:\ps2dev\test\test.elf and it uses file host:test.dat it must be in C:\ps2dev\test\ ?

Ok then, last question :)
Why there is RAD HOST TOOL ? Can you explain with example what it does? Thanks a lot!

you need a pc side server to respond to requests from ps2 for host: files.
ps2client does this, (xlink might, i dunno) but they also allow to send elf files for example. If a user wants to boot off mc or cd an app that requires host: then they can use rad to provide the service. or ps2client or whatever.

Thanks a lot! :) So basically all folders' files which are added into list of this program can be accessible through code via host: . If I am not right - then correct me :)
