Did you configure the path properly in config.txt?I'm getting a -5 error, unfortunately
You're right, the path wasn't properly formatted. Now it loads, but it still loads the menu twice.
was looking to switch over to using sysnand because my redNAND keeps getting randomly corrupted, which is nothing but a hassle, having to reinstall all the games again under the redNAND because they woouldnt play otherwise. My question here is this, is it possible to edit a file in the game data and have it play from the sig-patched sysnand instead of reinstalling them all from sysNAND? Thanks
I've just swapped from RedNAND to SysNAND and when trying to run games from my HDD it says the NNID was deleted and asked me to re-download the games, just deleted them all and in the process of reinstalling them all
when is somebody going to update the thread and make it say "Coldboothax - solving one loop with sysNAND CFW"
I have installed haxchi, and it works fine with fw.img as default and homebrew launcher with holding A. I compiled the FW.img using your fork and when I launch it I get the IOSUHAX logo but then it just freezes. I used the coldboot make to build it.
I have not uploaded any changed system files yet, I just tried loading haxchi with your fw.img present expecting to see a system menu, but it just hangs. Did I do something wrong here?

Did you run any sign patcher before? Try runnimg haxchi after a clean boot Of the Wii u.

Ah OK, Of cource Of you use the colsboot one it will freeze because there is no syshax.XML add the syshax.XML (it is safe as far as you don't change system.XML) then it will work
It would be nice if someone could write down a better and more Comprehensive tutorial on this thing. I am too busy for doing that.
I think this tutorial is fine. Seems pretty comprehensive to me. The only thing that's missing really are the w.up and w.dl commands. Also maybe a sanity check that people could do by downloading the modified system.xml to make sure to matches the MD5 of their modified system.xml they stored locally. I don't know how necessary that really is. vgmoose replied to one of my posts making it seem like file transfers via WUPclient were unreliable. I took it with a grain of salt though because people on this site seem to way over exaggerate the dangers associated with coldboothax. Also, I heard that if you have standby enabled that would lead to a brick. If that's true that should definitely be in the guide as well.
I think the only thing missing is a guide on how to download and upload the system xml files - I tried with the ftp server but couldnt navigate to the folder so guess I have to use wupclient etc - I will have a look at this later, the rest is straight forward as it is.
Appreciate your time spent on this and support you are giving.

Ideally you should first use the normale cfw iosuhax fw.img. So that you can use ftp_everywhere.

@SylverReZ, in my experience, I wouldn't say I am an audiophile because to me MP3s seem fine, frequency cut off but good enough lol although in my laundry list of freak gifts... Is the ability to hear frequencies beyond what anyone else I have ever met... I max out hearing tests with shocked looks from the Drs, sad part is I can hear frequencies much higher.+1

I am thankful florescent lights are mostly LED now... And TVs are far less annoying lol

@Psionic Roshambo, As somebody who has listened to music over everything, I prefer some good quality headphones that can output the sharpest audio. I listen to my music mostly with WAVE or FLAC files, with MP3s I can tell the difference straight away by the compression artifacts.+1 -

I mean I can tell the difference even with a high bitrate MP3 but I guess "it sounds good enough"

Psionic Roshambo:
Plus studio quality MP3's do exist, they are just like 512Kbps and are huge ass files lol

@Psionic Roshambo, MP3s were designed to be as small as possible, so that they can be shared on the internet. WAVE files were more bigger in size and would take hours to upload back in the day.
