if you want to do that, you have to dump your nand, and make the wad from the dump, because waninkoko made a safety measure (?) so you cant dump ios 249

FenrirWolf said:Is there some tool that can change the number of an IOS? If so you could dump IOS250 (which is a copy of 249) and then change the titleid or whatever to make it into IOS249. Of course that's assuming it dumps IOS250 correctly in the first place.
FenrirWolf said:You'll have to install a trucha patched wad to be able to get a cIOS wad installed anyway. But it will save you from having to install an old cIOS and then update it.

s3phir0th115 said:Man, you'd think information like this would be more readily available. All I'm wanting to do is make a wad so I can more easily hack 4.0 Wii's when I come across them instead of installing a trucha patched wad then running the installer.

By using FSToolBox and Hex, I have moved rev10 to IOS35, rev13 to IOS222 and else.
You can use FSToolBox to dump cert, tik, title and shared1 folders, and all files you need to pack a cIOS are inside these folders.

Start here:
http://wiibrew.org/wiki/Title_metadata
Extract the TMD of 0000001000000F9 and check the contents section starting at 0x1E4.
Note: this process would only allow you to recreate the cIOS revision that you currently have installed (afaik).
Example:
File 00000000.app
Index = 0000
Type = 0001 (local)
Hash = 0D1C3FFCE20046BA0D861F25315F295DB4C9CA32
This one's easy because it's local (already in the CONTENTS folder).
File 00000001.app
Index = 0001
Type = 8001 (shared)
Hash = B40F265AD296F362E6FBADCA53A350260656DF64
Find the file in the SHARED2 folder with that hash and include it in the WAD as 00000001.app.
I believe that is the process.
