Hacking Can apps tell from where they're loaded from.

[Anon10W1z]

why are you so concerned with backing up your saves anyways? Unless you're messing around with softmods frequently on a wii without bootmii@[member='boot2490'], the risk of actually losing any of your saves is next to nothing (only risk is hardware failure really). I think most people backup their saves not to save them for a rainy day like you're intending, but to install them on a friends' Wii or an emulated nand.

Just a question dude, why do you always mention bootmii as boot2 but not pre/priiloader?

Because
1) Priiloader is useless if you have a full brick
2) You can't make a nand backup with Priiloader, so it has nothing to do with saves

You can theoretically do a backup from Priiloader if you use it to boot Bootmii IOS, but you can only restore it if you have a GC controller (I don't have one)

I said this a long time ago, but suddenly I realized that if Bootmii IOS could tell if it was loaded from Priiloader, maybe it could be coded so that it would allow you to do a NAND restore. This goes for the new Wii's and boot1c Wii's.

so? the wii would need priiloader and bootmii ios

Being loaded from priiloader doesn't make it any safer to restore the NAND.

There aren't any Wii's that can't install Bootmii IOS.

EDIT: Can someone just answer my question?

Sure, the answer is no.

Sure, the answer is no.

Alright then...you can close this thread now.
