Hacking [HELP] Getting install error! (ret = -2011) when installing cios

[cme]

Hi all,

1st of all great comunity over here!

Now back to subject...
can't find this anywhere.

When I try to install cios38r13b with IOS38-64-v3610.wad and wad manager 1.4 I get this error install error! (ret = -2011)
In cios install in "Select IOS version to use during installation:" I get the following possible options:
IOS4 - 9 - 10 - 11 - 12 - 13 - 14 - 15 - 16 -17 -20 -21 - 22 -28 - 30 - 31 - 33 - 34 - 35 - 36 - 37 - 38 - 50 - 51 - 53 - 55 - 60 - 61 - 254

I believe I have to select IOS38. I tried to use installation using wad manager or network and both fail.

IOS38-64-v3610.wad file is in SD root.

Any advice please?
thx

That's because you're on 4.0. You'll need to downgrade IOS35 or use cboot2 (if your wii is a LU64 type) to be able to install wads. There are various guides about this you can search for.

I found this guide on an Italian site and thought it would help you out.

Translate with google.

This helped me fix my friends Wii who had the same error. Follow it to Step number 7 and it should fix it. If you have a LU64 type wii I think this won't work.

OK guys. Thanks for the replies. I'll try it as soon as I can.
I do have System Software 4.0 and my Wii is dated June 2007... don't know the serial number. I believe since the console is from mid 07 that there is no problem, right?

Just one more question... will I be able to run backup dvd's after this? If not what else do I need to do? (sorry but i'm new in this world)

Thanks.

lmao the second to last step tells you to install cIOS 9.wad.

without cIOS my arse.

Found the steps except the last one: "If you want a System Menu lower than 4.0, use cIOS Downgrader"

What I did next was downloading wiigator and tried a backup game and it worked!
But should I do anything else before steping into wiigator? Should I install Preloader?

Advice please!!!

Thnx.

Really need help over here!
After following the instructions and following the step by step guides I installed cios38r13b with IOS38-64-v3610.wad . OK now!

After this if when I turn on my Wii with the SD card on it it won't boot!!! I need to press the Reset button or remove the card for Wii to boot. I'm not able anymore to enter BootMii!

Please help!!!! Please!!!!

Thanks.

I do NOT have 4.0, I have 3.2U and I still get the same error when trying to install IOS38-64-v3610.wad

Any ideas?

 

[NickPDX]

I was getting the same error on a 3.4U wii ... I followed this guide and it ended up working fine.

Good luck ... Hope it helps.

I was getting that exact error while trying to do what your doing...

What i was doing wrong was, i was choosing IOS38 to do the install when i should have been picking IOS36, once i did that, the new CIOS installed without any errors...

Hope this helps

You shouldn't be installing those wads directly anyway. You should use the installer.dol from Waninkoko's blog. Put the wad file in the root of your SD card to do a non-network installation. Don't just install those wads with wad manager.

The installer does some patching to the wads before installation - so you may have problems in the future if you don't to this properly.
