Hacking Never-online 5.4 Wii U, steps to take to homebrew it?

[Rhymekaze]

I'm not really seeing any solid guide on what to do from 5.4 - just a bunch of different threads on different exploits and I'm not sure what to piece together.

Basically I want to set up the Homebrew Launcher (Loadiine, specifically), and prevent my console from auto-updating (is this possible?)

The reason they got burried away is because Dimok developped a way to make same links work for both 5.4.0 and 5.3.2,

The right step to take for any homebrew, is you go to the homebrew's thread, for example you want Loadiine? go to loadiine's thread : https://gbatemp.net/threads/loadiine-gx2.413823/
to prevent your console from updating no matter what version you are on, use tubehax DNS,
I encourage you to read the sticky thread for a global understanding : https://gbatemp.net/threads/the-definitive-guide-to-wii-u-hacking.396828/
