when i do the NAND backup it says it fails to verify block 3449. but i still get the nand.bin file on my SD card. so am i safe to have it like this and be able to recover my wii if somehow it gets bricked?
If the backup could not be verified it's possible the backup is corrupt(e.g. the error is in the sysmenu or the IOS for the sysmenu).
I suggest you to try it again and again or use bootmii 0.2 and/or try another sd card.
Btw, you use bootmii as boot2?

so for that do i need to put the sd back in the wii and check it through the channel like i did the first time? or do i go through the homebrew channels bootmii option?.
also wait dont i need IOS to install Cios and preloader?

iban88, judging by that last post it does'nt seam that you know enough to be actually doing these things randomly to your wii. The "also wait dont i need IOS to install Cios and preloader?" sentence has me worried for you. I suggest reading these forums some more before you continue or you may end up with a nice white paperweight.
I suggest you read and pay attention to this thread "http://gbatemp.net/index.php?showtopic=173713" for your own wii's safety!

i asked that because you see he says IOS is useless in his opinion. i so far have been following these guides here http://gbatemp.net/index.php?showtopic=168890. howvever the one you gave me is talking about the bannerbomb which is what i used to put homebrew on my wii. o_0

The guide he linked is my guide that talks about EVERYTHING you should need. Everything used in that guide you linked and more. Bannerbomb is the subject of that spoiler underneath it. Every subject has it's own title with a spoiler under it explaining in detail what it is while the title itself links to the application it's talking about. There is over 10 pages of single spaced 8.5 verdana font text in that guide that should tell you anything you should need to know. Read it, learn it, understand it, THEN hack your Wii.
im not brushing it off. im re reading it again. i will re read it all many times. no way in hell i want to brick my wii when i just got it again. lol. im trying to get a guarantee brick protection. so i guess il just google search hackmii installer beta v2?? i used and have beta3

Because you have a boot2v3/boot2v4 Wii, as said in the section on bootmii. Those cannot and will not be able to install to boot2. Try reading everything from start to finish in order.
Also there aren't preloaders. There is one application called preloader that can be installed on 4.1 too. I don't know what you are talking about that I only say up to 4.0 about something. In the 4.1 updater/dop-IOS section I tell anyone that isn't updated to 4.1 to do so.
Edit: Are you talking about the preloader guide that I linked to? Ok that doesn't mention the hacks.ini for preloader on 4.1 so you would just need to find that elsewhere. Preloader itself installs the same way though.
Edit2: HERE is the list of the hacks.ini for every region/FW. Just go to whatever FW and region you are and copy the text in that section to some text editor of some sort and save it as "hacks.ini" Then just use that for preloader. I'll add that to my guide.

the legal drinking age here in the US is 21, as some of you may know, but i think either it should be 18 or the age you're an adult should be 21.+1

@
BakerMan:
and i know what you may be thinking, "why become an adult at 21? doesn't that mean that banging an 18 year old would be illegal?"+1
first of all, being in a relationship with someone who's 18 is technically ok, as long as it started when they were 18, but the age gap is still weird depending on how old you are. besides, the age of consent differs between different states -
@
BakerMan:
also my reasoning for adult age being 21 is because the reason that's the drinking (and now smoking) age is because it "gives them more time to think rationally and not drive drunk"+1
so you should have that extra time to mature and think rationally before going to serve in the military or vote -
@
BakerMan:
tl;dr the "adult" age and the legal drinking age (and voting age) here in the US should be the same+4

What about making kids wait till 18 or 21 to drive? And yea is messed up, you can join army and die for your country at age 18, but you can't drink alcohol or smoke a cig til 21, is ridiculous+3

If someone is in the military they should be allowed to smoke and drink at 18.... Would help drive recruitment lol+3

@

We all know they do and will anyways. I think laws prevented them only pushes them to illegally do it. Even tho if was legal, most prob wouldn't even bother. Not a big deal or risque if its legal, no fun.+2

That's why some kids don't mind having a rap sheet or two just so they never get drafted+2 -
@
BakerMan:
also, i think the voting age should match the adult and drinking ages too, because by the logic of giving them time to mature and think rationally so they don't drive drunk, then they should also have that time to mature and think rationally so they can think for themselves+2
