Hi all, I would like to install aroma on a wiiu. Unfortunately I have no Gamepad, and I can't use internet browser without it(there is a curtain and a prompt to press x button). I've managed to setup drc-sim, but unfortunately it worked only once. I went through the initial Wii U setup, I've set up an Internet connection and I've done an update and now it isn't working anymore. After pairing, drc-sim disconnects immediately. I would like to know if I can bypass this problem. I know about UDPIH and I was wondering if I could install aroma in some way from there.
Thank you very much

Edit: I've also found that exists bluubomb. It seems that I can use it somehow to install aroma, but I am not sure

ononpnrpqcpa - I'm using a pi zero and struggling to follow the instructions. Would you or any knowledgeable folk assist with further directions? Tia
 
Thanks for your interest, although hopefully I'm now on the right track and this response will be of use to someone.

I was using a Pi zero, without the W, via a usb hub with ethernet to build GaryOderNichts udpih (so I can't post links).

Unfortunately, whenever I ran the command "echo "dtoverlay=dwc2" | sudo tee -a /boot/firmware/config.txt", following a reboot the device would lock out any use of the attached usb devices so build could never be executed.

My new solution will be the Pi Pico, which appears far simpler to load, as well as being cheaper than a pi upgrade.

Another solution, previously mentioned, and should probably be the first resort, is DRC SIM. Again, i can't post links, but if you Google "how to install and use Drc SIM in 2022" and make use of the linked downloads in a very helpful youtube video you should have success with the build. I didn't and failed with various versions of Ubuntu and wasted a lot of time.

Hopefully this is of use to fellow noobs, even if not to you SDIO!

Thanks again
