If is possible to install bootmii as boot2 on older (pre LU64+ era wiis). You have to use an infectus modchip (only an infectus or other nand programmer hardware will work, no other modchips) and you have to program bootmii into boot2 blocks 3 and 4.
And it is possible to do a nand dump without bootmii installed as boot2. Keep in mind people that you can install bootmii as an IOS on any wii.
DeadlyFoez said:Xavbox requires a infectus to work. An you dont have to do blocks 0-7 (first 8 blocks) because bootmii is strictly in blocks 3 and 4, so you never have to chance messing up your boot1 or boot2 versions.
There is more details about this and I will only go into length if requested to do so.
P.S. I am no spokesman for Team Twiizers, but I have asked them enough questions to fully understand.
DeadlyFoez said:No. You are not good enough with your soldering skills. Not many people are. It was a challenge my first time to solder wires that small and I have done component swaps many time with a soldering iron before. Trust me, this is way different. And I can tell that you are not good enough because the only people that are good enough can read scematics and have already taken their wii apart and dont have to ask these questions. Sorry man. Not trying to flame you.
If you dont understand what "blocks" are then do some research on wiibrew.org and you will understand after a little research in the hardware section. But Xavbox does not make you have to worry about the amout of bytes or even hex editing. As long as you only write blocks 3 and 4 then you are safe....for the most part for someone who does understand this stuff.
Since your nand dump is in .bin format then that can be used to unbrick your wii.
