su-ed
renamed oryginal wad (I didn't want to remove right now):
mv doom1.wad doom1.-wad
created symlink to mmc:
ln -s /media/mmc2/DOOM2.WAD ./doom2.wad

voila
My all id games on my PC work that way for their "big" PAK's.
I thought about that but then doesn't symlinks only work for ext fs, not fat?

Also if I want to change wad, I don't need to rename as much or make new links.
