Hacking BootMii

[TeenTin]

I wae to install bootmii on a virgin lu65 with sm4. I load up banner bomb and the bootmii.dol it shows me the disclaimer then resets and enters nintendo mode again.

So, Virgin LU65+ 4.0 is still unhackable, and may be for a long long long time.

Disappointed.

Can you install it as IOS and Boot2?

 

[Meannekes]

sure why not

its likeyou have an app as channel and on sd for the hbc

I have them both installed

 

[jan777]

i solved my problem

i used another sd caed

my nand.bin was 528 mb.. i thouht the wii was only 512?

 

[jos7960]

After installing this, is there any reason to keep preloader? (systemhacks aside)

 

[FenrirWolf]

Must be a result of conversion to .bin or something. Who knows.

sooo.... if i have preloader installed, and i install bootmii... how will i be able to access preloader?

 

[olliepop2000]

Weird, I can't use the power/reset buttons to start the installation, anyone else had this problem? Time to get a GC controller I think hmmm.

As you did previously.
Power on the Wii and hold the RESET Button until preloader loads.

However, now i have problem with crazy intro. The video doesn't appear. Any idea on how to fix this??

works easy, when you use the reset button to chose to system menu from bootmii screen, you just hold button like you would to load preloader normally.

edit: oops kotri already answered

Stupid question, it's okay to take the nand backup off the SD card and put the old stuff back onto it right?

Then I can put it back like this when/if I ever need it..

Might actually make more sense to use StartPatch now, with this out, since StartPatch is uninstalled much much easier, and only does the systemhacks.

And by the way, did anyone else have trouble installing this using loadmii? I was using the BannerBomb with loadmii as the boot.dol, and then selected the BootMii.elf and it didn't seem to work.

 

[FenrirWolf]

Wow, I forgot about StartPatch. I think I'll finally update to 4.0 now that I have BootMii to keep the bricks away.

I cant have bootmii.ini to work properly.

I have it like this
video=progressive
autoboot=sysmenu

But when I power on my wii the Bootmii screen comes up instead of sysmenu

Installed a few hours ago, went off without a hitch.

installed to boot2 (launch wii

 

[FenrirWolf]

The system menu will boot if you don't do anything in the BootMii screen after a few seconds.

As I'm at work right now I could not test it yet, but maybe the ini is case sensitive. The bootmii readme says:

VIDEO=NTSC (or PAL50/PAL60/PROGRESSIVE)
AUTOBOOT=HBC (or SYSMENU)

Thank you, but I waited for 1 minute and nothing happened.

I will try this. Thanks

Bootme: Can NOT be installed
boot1 and/or boot2 could not be read (-1)

(Wii sysmenu 4.0, updated with waninoko's sysmenu updater, The trucha signing ios's are still there)

My wii has the hackable version of boot1, so I should be able to install it.
Anyone know how to fix this :>?

Thanks,
