    Tutorial Homebrew app USB Partition - Use partitioned USB HDDs with the Wii U

    This makes sense to me. Yikes... So we have undefined behaviour and a race condition... And even if I could somehow determine 100% for sure that my SSD is always fast enough, I'll still have to get really picky about any other USB drive I replace it with. Definitely leaning towards buying a...

    Tutorial Homebrew app USB Partition - Use partitioned USB HDDs with the Wii U

    Hello 🙂 I've been using the non-SD variant of this plugin, in conjunction with the ISFSHax-with-redNAND setup, for the last few months. There have been no issues - thank you again @SDIO for all of your support in getting me up and running! I'm getting close to running out of space on the SD...

    Tutorial Project How to set up ISFShax + Stroopwafel

    Slot 60 has: slots: [0x7c, 0x3d, 0x3e, 0x3f] Slot 61 has: slots: [0x7c, 0x7d, 0x3e, 0x3f] Slot 62 has: slots: [0x7c, 0x7d, 0x7e, 0x3f] Slot 63 has: slots: [0x7c, 0x7d, 0x7e, 0x7f] Okay, this makes sense Excellent. I won't worry about it, then :) Well they're certainly lower than the ones on...

    Tutorial Project How to set up ISFShax + Stroopwafel

    I figured out what was happening: The Wii U was indeed booting to an older version of minute on the SLC. The reason haxcopy didn't work was that I ran it with redNAND enabled for the SLC. So it just copied fw.img onto the "SLC" SD card partition, but ISFSHax looks for it on the real SLC. The...

    Tutorial Project How to set up ISFShax + Stroopwafel

    Downloaded this .zip file and extracted it to the root of my SD card Inserted the SD card into my Wii U and booted to minute using existing ISFSHax Used 'Print SLC Superblocks' option in minute to print out the superblock info. The generation numbers for the ISFSHax superblocks ended in 33, 34...

    I did the following: Formatted the SD card again with partitions for the SLC, SLCCMPT, and MLC redNAND Configured redNAND for only the SLC and MLC Rebuilt the MLC contents (updates, DLC, and savegames) Saw your post Booted the attached minute fw.img from the SD card Printed the superblock...

    Tutorial Project How to set up ISFShax + Stroopwafel

    After getting ISFSHax installed (but before seeing your follow-up post about the risk of ISFSHax rewriting superblocks), I proceeded with the ISFSHax-with-redNAND tutorial. I installed Aroma, Moved my saves from the MLC to the SD card partition with SaveMii, and downloaded all the updates and...

    Tutorial Project How to set up ISFShax + Stroopwafel

    This answers my question too! I booted to minute (for the first time since the previous dumps) and did a third dump. The generation numbers are: FF FF 80 1F (Edited. I previously mistyped 80 as 90) FF FF 80 1C FF FF 80 1D FF FF 80 1E So it seems to be going through the superblocks in a...

    Tutorial Project How to set up ISFShax + Stroopwafel

    I'm identifying the ISFSHax superblocks by their containing the string "SFFS.SFS!.searching.good" string. For both dumps, they are in the last four slots. First dump: FF FF 80 1B FF FF 80 1C FF FF 80 19 FF FF 80 1A Second dump: FF FF 80 1B FF FF 80 1C FF FF 80 1D FF FF 80 1A So it looks...

    Tutorial Project How to set up ISFShax + Stroopwafel

    I booted to minute, dumped the SLC, booted to minute again, and dumped the SLC again. Comparing the two dumps with HxD showed several differences. For my understanding - is this concerning because ISFSHax shouldn't be writing to the SLC, and more writes result in more degradation of the SLC...

    Wow, this one worked! I have ISFSHax installed now. Thank you for all your help! I'll proceed with the guide now and post about any more issues I run into. While we're here - is there anything I can do (besides disabling standby services, of course) to avoid potential future issues with the SLC...

    Thank you! I'd like to make it clear that I don't have any expectations for how long this process will take. You are doing me a big favour already :) I used this to dump an SLC.ECC file. You can find it in the same place as the SLC.RAW files

    Very informative, thank you! I'm learning a lot. Unfortunately I don't know. I enabled the quickstart menu only once, after buying the console in 2014. I can't recall choosing an interval. I also disabled standby services when starting this guide (and therefore, before doing any of the dumps)...

    Sorry! I had missed it. I don't have a list - they just get printed out while dumping and they go by quite fast. Maybe writing them to a log file would be a good feature to add to minute. In the meantime I ran a third SLC dump while recording a video of the screen, and went through it...
