Many, many thanks for this.

Recently updated my 3.2e wii to 4.2e without a problem. The process was so much easier than before and the guide was pretty much flawless.

The only issue I have now is I have to go into HBC and launch gecko or neogamma every time I want to play game now, rather than launching from the disk channel. Any ideas, anyone?

Thanks again.

Install a neogamma forwarder channel, you can find a bunch of my channels here: http://tinyurl.com/topchannels
at the bottom of that page, there are also links to many other ppl's channels so you have many to choose from

But instead of running games from disc, I recommend u get a hard drive and use a usb-loader instead.

I guess you had cioscorp/darkcorp before.
ModMii has updated (overwritten) all your ios, that's why you can't no more launch backup from the disk channel.

EDIT:
Ops.. you beat me for a bunch of seconds

I could upload it elsewhere, but ModMii itself downloads a lot of files from google code. So if u can't access google code, then u are definitely going to experience some errors when using ModMii.

If you still want me to mirror the latest version of ModMii for you, I can do that (heck I can even email it to u if u want). But there are going to be some files that u specifically will not be able to download using modmii (ie. Priiloader 236, IOS236 Installer v5 Mod, etc.), and u will need to search for mirrors of those downloads and manually copy it to your SD card. But u will still be able to get most of the files u need, as well as have ModMii build a custom guide for u to follow.

For u, it may be simpler to just use the other stickied guide by xzxero. His guide shares all those files in one megaupload link. While it's not 100% legal, I'm sure u don't give a sh*t and it definitely works.

@ Flak - nope sorry only 'links' I have are what I found using Google

EDIT: Links removed due to XFlak informing me that the links were 'illegal' (see post below) - I didn't know that....Thanks XFlak

Oh BTW I was calling it 'DarkWii Blue' because of the 'blue' lines in it (where the one in ModMii has 'red' lines).. just to differenciate the difference between the two
I did happen to know it is known as just 'DarkWii'

while he should eventually reinstall the HBC to IOS58, its not the cause of the problem

Are you using Priiloader (236) which was added to ModMii recently? If so, then you don't have IOS236 installed and u should repeat that step of the guide before continuing.

If you are using an older version of ModMii, you will first need to launch MMM, reload to IOS236, then launch the priiloader installer from MMM's app manager. If IOS236 is not an option for u to reload to, then its not installed, and again u should repeat that step of the guide.

So basically, either you are skipping steps, or a previous step failed and u didn't notice.

edit:
@CannonFoddr,

Firstly, thats the darkwii theme, not the darkwii blue theme.
Secondly, you linked to a 4.2E csm file, unlike a mym file, I can't use the 4.2E csm file to build themes for other firmwares/regions (not to mention that you can't share csm's like that directly since they contain ninty code, so u may want to remove that link before a mod does it for u).

I appreciate the thought though, but unfortunately it doesn't help me.
Thanks anyways!

its probably rebooting the Wii because its trying to reload IOS236 then start the priiloader installer, but since it seems you don't have IOS236 installed, its just rebooting the Wii. In my experience, if IOS236 isn't installed, the Wii doesn't reboot, but instead starts the installer under the currently loaded IOS instead of reloading to IOS236.... so the fact that its rebooting the Wii sounds a little weird to me.

You should put the Priiloader 236 Mod back onto your sd card, otherwise it won't load using IOS236. And u should make sure u install IOS236 before proceeding.

If you put the Priiloader 236 files back on the card, u don't need to reload 236 using MMM. Just make sure all the files are exactly how ModMii built it, then launch Priiloader 236 from the HBC.

FYI, inside the SD:\apps\priiloader236 folder (or w/e its called), there should be a boot.dol and a boot1.dol
