Hardware HBC & configurable freeze

[dlf]

Might just because of my system coming with 4.2 preinstalled (

) but as of a few minutes ago when I tried to run configurable it'd freeze but also the HBC would also slowdown / freeze as well. I can't seem to get the channel to read the 1 TB Western Digital My-Book I got today either -- weather it matters or not it has: 2 firewire ports (my computer has one as well), 1 USB port & one estata. I am quite sure my FAT 32 partition is set to active & primary. Any help?


Would it be possible to get a system menu version of pre 4.0 (but with SD menu capability) working on a SDHC or the HDD?



THANK YOU!

I think others here have had problems as well . . . is it 4.2 (or .3), our HDD, the HBC we have, or something else?

It could be that your HDD is not compatible, you could try if a USB stick also freeze.

have u checked to see if your HDD has a sleep timer set for X amount of minutes?

Doubt it's a sleep time, even if I star the Wii, go to the channel and connect the drive it is still unselectable. Don't know if it would work for 1.0.6 of the HBC and I don't think (though I am probably wrong) SD SNEEK allows for USB access nor do i have working UNEEK (working on that)

NUSAD from my signature can build a working SNEEK/UNEEK/SNEEK+DI/UNEEK+DI +build a NAND for it

but the new HBC has been said to not work for a lot of people, if u have access to the hackmii installer v0.6, I would try installing the JODI HBC v1.0.6 and see if that works

Seems to have failed . . . I doubt the blue LED light of the Wii is supposed to blink after starting bootmii (HBC)

Try a different SD Card, not every SD Card is compatible. You could also try to reformat the card with a different sector size (I have read that 16KB or 32KB are needed)

I HAVE a MicroSDHC card (8GB) for my DS lite (cyclo), but the card I am using is also SDHC (16 GB). I had a 2 GB SD card several months ago before it got stolen like my Wii

You could try uloader with hermes cIOS222 v5.

. . . . It seems I can boot into bootMii now but I can't seem to start the UNEEK. I think this is easier for SNEEK than UNEEK.

Just start the system menu, then UNEEK should start.

Of the actual Wii (after booting bootmii)? . . . . . . . .After booting BM, I just get taken back to the Wii's physical system menu not UNEEK, I think I have UNEEK's @ 3.2. . I have it as an IOS because the Wii came with 4.2 preinstalled . . .

 

[FIX94]

Start bootmii IOS and then the system menu from bootmii (press reset in bootmii).

Now I just get taken to a blackscreen, no blinking blue LED light on the Wii, the front LED of the HDD just stays still. I sure I'm missing folders on the HDD:

s:\
shared1
SNEEK
sys

This is too hard for USB. The Homebrew browser won't recognize the drive either, none of the emulators will either. HMM.

 

[dlf]

I'd probably rather get the drive working in emulators and the HBC than running SNEEK/UNEEK/(W/E)

 

[trigger_ftu]

seems odd. i havn't ran into any issues. i just tried it with about 20 games on the usbloader (and yes it s cfg usbloader) and no issues.
btw i am using the exact same hard drive you are using (split in half that is)

I can run configurable again, but on the HBC, I can only select my SD card (SDHC that is) the drive has never 'shown up' and it won't work on any emulators ((S)NES, N64, Sega Genesis, GB(A|C), PS1 (?), etc).

do you have a partition on the hard drive that's fat32? i've been tryin to find a good partition tool and so far none have been successful from turning it from NTFS to FAT32. (1/2 of my drive is WBFS the other well u know NTFS)

 

[dlf]

Primary, active and is the first partition & yes it's FAT 32.
