Hi, so I just homebrewed my wii yesterday using the wii.hacks.guide tutorial. My goal was to be able to play my gamecube backups from a usb so my brother can have my gamecube. However, I have hit a wall. usbloadergx boots to a blank ui and is then stuck unless i hard power off. wiiflow also boots to loading animation and needs to be hard powered off.


my homebrew and game backups are all on a 32gb sandisk flash drive. it is fat32 formatted MBR with 8192 byte cluster size. i also tried 32kb clusters. there is no extra space surrounding the partition according to gparted. my cISO's have been updated according to the wii.hacks.guide instructions. where did i go wrong in my process? i am totally out of ideas :( I know usb flash isn't the ideal way to load game backups, but I don't have an SD card or external drive and I would like to make use of what I have instead of ordering a new one..

Not sure what "wii.hacks.guide tutorial" you used. Tutorial overload :(
For what it's worth, just use ModMii. That will send you in the right direction.

I cannot link to the site because of new user restrictions, but just search for "wii.hacks.guide". It's one of the first results on DDG. It's a pretty thorough tutorial and I don't feel like it misinformed me at all.

I tried using ModMii as you suggested, but it did not resolve the problem or provide any additional information, as I seemingly already have everything set up correctly on my USB drive.

I'm attaching a copy of my SysCheck to this post. If anyone could review it, I would appreciate it!!!! I'm still at a dead end as to what the problem is.

I will assume that you are using "Nintendont" (?).
try using Nintendont directly (no USBL GX). See how you go.
Sorry, don't have time to scroll through your Syscheck.

    I think we should outlaw healthcare entirely because the fact that people can get healthcare today is unfair to those in the past that couldn't

    @Sicklyboy - the comparison would be forgiving all medical debt, not making healthcare illegal!

    Although I still don't agree, medical debt is rarely a choice, whereas enrolling in university is certainly a choice

  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    College costs, college loans, book prices, the entire thing is predatory, oft touted as essential to a successful life for my generation and the ones since, and completely unaffordable without putting you through an insane financial hardship for literal decades in many situations.

    Many of the same issues can be seen for the insanely predatory healthcare and health insurance system in the US

  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    It's important for society to be healthy and educated. If those things can't happen because all of the institutions that prop up those industries make it unattainable for all but a small portion of society, then your society is largely going to be disease ridden, dying, and uneducated in very short order.

    Issue is it's too rich of a coperation already with bad sugar diets causing diabetes and killing teeth a new set of teeth around 90k
  • cearp @ cearp:
    I agree it's not easy for the average American, let alone the ones below that average. Free / cheaper healthcare is much more important I think than free university education.
    Of course like @mthrnite said, why not both. But I doubt both will get solved at once, and surely healthcare is top priority.

    And if the concern is that "well we can't trust the government to intervene for this because the government can't do anything right and wastes tons of money" then holy shit push for a better government.

    @K3Nv2 that's crazily expensive. how long will that take to pay off?

    Although diet is largely education, people don't need to go to university to learn what's healthy and what's not,
    it's the whole country, big corporations and advertising that is to blame for leading most of the population to believe that poptarts and froot loops are healthy to feed a child

    i would think the population knows better but with food deserts and abject poverty, sometimes a poptart gonna have to do.
