[longtom1]

no

 

[wiabs1]

Does the preloader come into play now or later?

Thank you

 

[longtom1]

there's no preloader for 4.2 at the moment supposed to be one in the pipeline though

 

[wiabs1]

K thanks

 

[ClockWorK]

Worked perfect except it said cant continue because no IOS are vulnerable??? how come it never gave that msg before & anyone know how to fix it thanks for the 4.2 fix man

Are you using the most recent version of the HackMii Installer? (version 0.5)

I had the same problem.

Used DOP-IOS to fix it by installing oldest version of IOS 36 (v1042 i think) with no patch (it didn't even ask about patching that one).

Another alternative is find the WAD file and install with WADmanager.

 

[wiabs1]

What do you leave on the sd card after you install home brew channel. and what do you take off.

 

[wiabs1]

What are the steps after homebrew install to get to usb loader gx working.

Good work comex! I can't test it right now because im on my wii and no wii coder made a WEB BROWSER THAT CAN DOWNLOAD FILES... Uh. Its annoying how I have to boot up slow pc and put files on my wii through ftpii

 

[VashTS]

yes excellent work comex, thank you. I wish I had knowledge to do stuff like this. I know this will come in handy one day and I hope bannerbomb will be fixable on every system menu release

.29 works fine with 4.2. Just force IOS 60 to be the System Menu IOS to avoid "corrupt file" errors.

it works but thats the point of the new system menu is to run off IOS 70

Will any of it fix the regionfree problem experienced by the modchips such as wiikey?

 

[Kal El]

Thanx Comex ! It works !!!

And big thank to xzxero too !!

Got 2 questions :

1 - I 've followed the guide to the end...successfully

But now, can i uninstall "bootmii as IOS" or not ?

Cause i don't know how to backup my nand if my wii don't boot on bootmii screen...(boot2)


2 - What about the boot.dol (cios38rev14) after install is complete ?
Do i have to keep it ? or i put back the dol of the cboot2 ?

Do not uninstall BootMii, make sure your SD card is inserted, the BootMii folder is on the root of the SD card, start your Wii and BootMii will start up. In there, use the Wiis front buttons to navigate through the menu. You want to go to the gears symbol(go there with power, enter with reset) and start the option where the arrow goes to SD card(this will backup your Nand).

The 38rev14 dol can be deleted from the SD card.

 

[Kal El]

Thanx for your reply !

I thought it was because of Bootmii as IOS...

But that's because of the cios38 boot.dol !!


When i restarted my wii, it launch the cios installer

I'm going to follow your instructions...

 

[Kal El]

I've deleted the boot.dol...

But i don't have the menu screen of bootmii... only black screen trying to start a boot.dol !

now, when i start my wii, bootmii just say : "Error unable to launch boot.dol " et roll again and again ...

Same thing when i try to launch bootmii from HBC...

i missed something i think...



I've installed "bootmii as IOS" and "Bootmii as boot2", both of them successfully...


May i have to put the original boot.elf of hackmii or other thing ?

 

[FenrirWolf]

Launch the HackMii Installer and do the "prepare SD Card" thing to recreate the necessary armboot.bin and ppcboot.elf

You ought to have backed that stuff up in the first place anyway.
