Hacking Modmii syscheck updater

[sock99]

Hi all,

I'm a bit rusty on all this but I'm still on 4.2E and I updated my Wii with Modmii 4.5.7 year or so ago. I have just used the new syscheck updater function in Modmii v5 to see what's out of date which gives this list:

Your unique list of WADs to install are as follows:
IOS11v16174(IOS60v6174[FS-ES-NP-VP])
IOS20v16174(IOS60v6174[FS-ES-NP-VP])
IOS30v16174(IOS60v6174[FS-ES-NP-VP])
IOS40v16174(IOS60v6174[FS-ES-NP-VP])
IOS50v14889(IOS50v4889[FS-ES-NP-VP])
IOS52v15661(IOS52v5661[FS-ES-NP-VP])
IOS60v16174(IOS60v6174[FS-ES-NP-VP])
IOS70v16174(IOS60v6174[FS-ES-NP-VP])
IOS80v16174(IOS60v6174[FS-ES-NP-VP])
cIOS222[38]-v4
cIOS249[56]-d2x-v7-final
cIOS250[57]-d2x-v7-final

My question is why is it suggesting updating IOS70 - the version seems lower & I thought this was a key hacked system menu IOS - won't this just reinstall the old system menu and bork my Wii? Also, what's the IOS60 in brackets after each IOS update?

and here's my Syscheck v2.1 report in the spoiler:

Since the last time u used ModMii a few changes have been made. The IOS70 modmii is asking u to install is really IOS60v6174 with patches and it's version # and slot # changed. This system menu IOS is superior to the one u are using now only because it will allow u to autoboot a disc to recover from specific kinds of bricks. Also, if your Wii used to be korean at one point and was region changed, the IOS u currently have installed would give u a 003 error\brick, but the one modmii is recommending u install now is safe even for korean region changed wii's (u don't need to care about that though since ur wii was never korean)

So basically whether u install it or not it won't make any noticeable difference to your softmod

Thanks for the quick reply Xflak.
As everything is running fine for the moment, for once I think I'll try and contain my desire always to have the latest of everything. Thanks for all your hard work with the continuing Modmii development - a really valuable tool especially for those of us who don't follow the hacking scene so closely now.
