IOSU CFW
Pros

  • sd card of any size will work with this
  • uses only 14MB on sd compared to the 8GB/32GB of redNAND
  • Works with vWii titles installed with Wup installer
  • SD card can be removed while in operation without utter anihilation
Cons
  • Not 100% safe as it mods sysNAND only temporarly and to reactivate the mods (sig patches etc.) has to be launched again. This makes it so if you modified some critical file incorrectly your wii U will become a fancy black/white brick
  • As of now it cannot install titles created with NUS packer which means in the future when HBL RPX edition is released it will not work with IOSU CFW unless NUS packer is made to work with sysNAND
  • Can't install sysConfig Tool as it is a system title
It can
 
Best part is that people think temporary patching sysNAND with IOSHAX is somehow a CFW...
That is a cfw. Otherwise minipasta isn't a cfw. Luma isn't a cfw. all cfw are just temp patches on sysnand or emunand that go after reboot (Even a9lh. You just reload luma after reboot. It doesn't stay)

It is the only difference is we have no way of auto launching it yet. Just have a look at arm9loaderhax on 3ds it is technically only temporary as well as when the system is shutdown the SYSNAND is technically untouched stock since all the cfw that Luma or whatever fork you use applies is only in memory just like the current cfw

Funny guys
On 3ds it works like this, at boot 0 an exploit was found to launch a payload before anything is initiated this is called arm9loaderhax, the payload you use is the actual cfw because without the payload arm9lh is basically a dead on arrival cfw launcher and this cfw you use is only temporary in memory so yeah

I originally had set up RedNAND, but I was unhappy with the speeds and the fact that it was taking up more than half the storage on my SD card. Also the fact that reformatting or updating RedNAND can brick your console is honestly a little off-putting.

I reformatted my SD card and switched to FIX94's IOSUhax. I'm much happier with the results this way. I feel like as long as I stick to installing content downloaded with FunKiiU or uTikDownloadHelper to USB, the risk of bricking is still fairly low. Things also run MUCH faster.

I also boot into vWii quite often, so it's nice to not have to swap around between SysNAND and RedNAND to do so.

http://www.wiiubru.com/rip/ 4 people bricked
 
we don't find exploit.
we find vulnerabilities, and we exploit them.
we also don't usually "search" vulnerabilities, we actually notice them by looking how nintendo did their work and noticing bugs and bad coding practices.
 
Did you guys also call the browser hax a CFW... Same thing (Different exploit, But same thing), A exploit being run after boot that allows you get up to mischief...

Proof? Haven't heard of anyone successfully installing a title created with this in theory it should be able to no problem but it seemingly can't

The games installed to my patched sysnand, work on my patched sysnand
From the maker
 
One of those people made a mistake while installing a hard mod.

One of them tried to edit their system.xml

One of them tried to install sysconfig tool to his SysNAND

The only somewhat sketchy one is the person who bricked while installing the MH3U update to SysNAND.

So I'm going to go ahead and stick with my statement lol. The chances of bricking are super low, unless you're doing something stupid.
