This here is betwiin, a NAND flash conversion tool for Wii NAND
images.ÂÂIt can re-encrypt and re-HMAC the per-console unique parts of
a NAND dump from one Wii such that it will run on a second one, with
the following caveats:

1) The version of boot1 you flash to a NAND chip must match the
original one that shipped with that Wii.ÂÂNo exceptions.

2) The version of boot2 must be equal to or greated than the one most
recently installed on that Wii.

3) No handling of bad blocks is performed; if your target NAND chip
has a bad block that hits an important file required for system
startup, I suggest you find a differente donor dump to start from.

This code represented many, many hours of hard work to generate, and
could not have been done without the help of segher, marcan and gray.
Per the GPL, you are free to use, modify and (in some cases)
redistribute it, but I won't refuse any PayPal donations to the above

Directions for use:

Copy input dump file to input/flash.bin.ÂÂCopy input keys to input/.
Copy output keys to output/.ÂÂRun betwiin.py, wait several minutes.
Take output file from output/nand.bin and use as appropriate.

The important question is has anyone tried it yet??

and did the nand file work in bootmii pass the simulation and work on the wii??

not had the need to try it yet, and hopefully never will

Be interesting to see the results that come from this though.

Just noticed in my excitement I posted this in the "Wii Hacking forum" rather than the homebrew one.. doh!

I guess it could qualify as a 'hacking' post but it probably belongs in the homebrew thread really?!

but how do you get your wii's keys?

you can use xyzzy to obtain the key from your wii. The only thing I am not certain of is how one can determine the version of boot1 and boot2 that they have. Does titlelister provide that info, or is there another program?

Small but basic, used it once before and I think it check both...

My god this is freaking amazing. Especially for those who end up losing their SD card/dump files. Thank you Bushing!


Offtopic:
Kinda took me a while to figure out what the title 'Betwiin' mean xD.

"Bet-win? Be-twin..OHHH. 'Between'! xD." Clever.

haha, i didn't realize that untill you posted it, i was reading Bet-win. Anyways, great job Bushing, thanks, this will definitely come in handy, and i'm excited to see how it works when people try it with bricks.
