What guide and what was this boot.dol for? You need to be more specific. What IOS did you install?

I can't really understand why all these people are updating to 4.2 in the first place...

It doesn't actually do anything GOOD http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wii_System_Software

QUOTE* Updates Wii Shop Channel.
* Deletes DVDX version 1 and Homebrew Channel versions 1.0.4 and older and blocks Bannerbomb v1[4]
* Refuses to boot and displays the message "Error:003" on Korean systems that have had its software region changed to a different country.[5] [6]
* Installs boot2v4 if it had not been installed. This could brick consoles having user modified boot2 loaders and has a very slight chance to render even unmodified system inoperable if the process was interrupted while it was being written.[4][7][8]
* Updates all IOSs and adds IOS70.[5][9]
* Replaces IOSs 222, 223, 249 and 250 (spots where cIOSs are installed) with stubs.[9]

So why the hell would you update? Doesn't make any sense.

But ANYWAY... IOS 222, 223, 249, and 250 were all erased. So you could use DOP-IOS to replace them and you should be ok.

No, Dop IOS first off generally needs a functioning IOS249 to run and secondly, it also cannot install stubs and it only installs legal versions and unmodified (besides trucha bug and ES identify patch) versions of IOS's. So it cannot fix any of those IOS's.

Duh, run the Twilight Hack version of Loadmii and run the WAD Manager from it (have a wadmanager.dol in the root of your SD card and load it from there) and then use IOS30 or IOS36 to run the WAD Manager and install a regular non trucha signed IOS30 from it.

[url=http://code.google.com/p/loadmii/downloads/list]http://code.google.com/p/loadmii/downloads/list[/url]

Get the elf version of that.

Get the .dol there and name it anything but boot.dol and have in the root (obviously same extension)

Now, get loadmii and name it boot.elf and run Bannerbomb v2 from Bannerbomb and use that.

Now you can run the installer.

Oh and don't play the game until its officially released and buy it.

lost..

i need to go rent twilight again?

like when you mod version 3.4

No, you need the .elf version (not the .dol version) (actually, either works but if you use stacksmash you need the .elf version so get the TP version) of it for it to work, so it says Twilight Hack in it because its main use was originally through the Twilight Hack to run stuff. So yeah, just get either lol.
 
ok so

i download the twilight.put it on my sd card and the wadmanager to

now were do i get this ios 30?

Get the NUS Downloader and use that http://wiibrew.org/wiki/NUS_Downloader

Now go to the databse and choose IOS30 v2576

Or you can type in:

000000010000001E v2576

Make sure to pack the wad.
