    Hi everyone, my first post, I get a lot of help from this site and for the first time i cant find an answer

    This is whats happening. Im trying to install HBC but once i open Letterbomb this is what it says

    SD card detected
    Opening boot.elf
    boot.elf not found (-1), tryibg boot.dol
    boot.dol not found (-1)
    USBGecko not found
    No code found to load, hanging

    i have downloaded the corect files with the corect MAC many times and formated the sd card as well and still nothing.

    anyone know what the problem is? and how to solve it?

    You already answered it yourself...
    You did not put the HackMii installer in the root of the SD with the correct name, or some obscure corruption of the card is preventing it from being loaded

    it has it, the boot.elf and the private folder, it might be the sd card or adapter but if were not working properly it would not load the files on it, right?

    It could have a bad sector where the directory entry for boot.elf happens to be (as unlikely it could be)...

    Trying a different card, preferably one reformatted with the official SD Formatter, would be a great idea

    Or maybe try a different exploit, like the new str2hax?

    Not sure but the sd card has to be below 4 gb

    I use a 512mb for example as 4gb and higher never worked at that Installer. At least for me

    i use a 16gig micro in an adapter and works fine the boot.elf needs to be with the iplXXX.bin files on sd card not in a folder to work

    My Wii seems to be an early model, so why can't I install BootMii on Boot2?
