Hi, I'm a newcomer to the Wii hacking scene.
I have a Korean Wii with 3.3K and Flatmod. I updated the Wii with Kung Fu Panda (US) (for ios21 I think?) and then used the twilight hack on the SD card to install the Homebrew Channel.
I wanted to try out Dacko's Wiiscrubber to create a multiboot DVD. I followed the instructions and created a DVD with the following games -
Partition:0 - Data (0) Wii Sports (US)
Partition:1 - Data (0) Wii Play (US)
Partition:2 - Data (0) Wii Fit (US)
Partition:3 - Data (1) Winter Sports 2 (US)
Partition:4 - Data (2) Legend of Zelda Twilight Princess (US)
If I understand correctly, the 3 game limitation exists only on partition table 0. So I believe I made the DVD correctly.
{{The total size of these 5 partitions comes round to 3.55GB and since the ISO file itself is around 4.5GB, so there is enough space to add one more game but strangely when I try to add a 6th game it says that there's not enough space. Any ideas why? Anyways, this is not my main focus... just curious.}}
However, when I insert the DVD my Wii displays an error message and asks me to eject the disc and restart. I can't even restart the Wii with the power button so I have to unplug it and start again. Same thing happens when I use the GeckoOS107b.
Again, when I load the disc through the multiboot app (included in the Wiiscrubber kit) in the Homebrew Channel, it shows a partition error saying the partition could not be opened.
So, is there anything additional I need to do or install for the DVD to load?
I read somewhere that the multiboot might require IOS 249 and/or IOS 40 to be installed. Is this true? I haven't really tried installing ios files or wads and only have a vague understanding of what they are. So I don't want to risk bricking my Wii by installing extra stuff that I don't need (for now).
I used the AnyTitleDeleter to check the IOS files installed on my Wii ~ 4/9/11/12/13/14/15/17/20/21/22/28/30/31/33/34/35/36/37/40/41/43/45/MIOS/BC/SYSMENU/
I have learnt how to extract IOS files from Wii game backups by following this guide ~ (
http://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_view.cfm/728206 ). So I know at least how to extract and save IOS files.
But how do I install ios files onto my Wii?
Do I need to use Waninkoko's WAD Manager v1.3 (
http://www.teknoconsolas.es/blog/waninkoko/wad-manager-v13 )? I'm not clear on how to exactly to proceed with this. Help please!
Oh, and is the IOS 249 mentioned above the same thing as Waninkoko's Custom IOS36 rev 08 (
http://www.teknoconsolas.es/blog/waninkoko...om-ios36-rev-08 )?
In short, the crux of my post is this -
1. Do I need to install anything to make the multiboot DVD created with Wiiscrubber run on my 3.3K Wii? If yes, what exactly do I need to do/install? For example, do I need to install IOS files and which ones exactly?
2. In general, How does one install ios files? A simple step by step explanation would be really appreciated.
Sorry, for the long post.
