Hacking Pikmin 2 asks for system update

[triassic911]

Run it with geckoos 1.8 or above and install the ios' from the disc. Then you should be able to run it from the disc chanel afterwards.

You are going to install every IOS then (even if the game is not going to use them), because Pikmin 2 has 3.4. It's safer to use the disc update.

hi i am useing wiiflow and preloader v0.30 iso v70 system menu v482 , homebrew 1.0.6 ios 61 v19.26, wii system ver 4.2e and nerogamma 7 rev 14,
cIOSCORPv3.5. and having problems loading up a orignal disc to pikmin 2 and it still will not work unless the wii system is updated but it does not say what it will update to.

This one is driving me nuts.

1. I guess it was 3.2E PAL Wii (I would assume oldest possible for Mario Cart and Mario Galaxy - though it might be 3.3E). I installed those cioses, there's some modchip.
2. Pikmin2 shows the update icon as the disk channel. Runs through GeckoOS 1.9 just fine.
3. Installed Waninkoko 4.0E. Menu shows this version, there's SD card icon - I assume update was a success.
3. I tried to update everything using DOP - no luck. Managed to get HBC upside-down - fixed ios61.
4. Installed cIOScorp 3.5 - no luck.

What else could I've forgotten? Could it be that my Wii was so old that there's something I need installing that is not mentioned in any guide/added to any package? I'm not even sure Pikmin2 is from a proper region - can somebody tell me how to check the region so I let it update the console?

Just look at the game box to know its region.
You can update safetely with the game, it won't touch anything important on your Wii. It includes 3.4, and you have a semi-4.0. If you tried to update all IOS with Dop-IOS it means that the game is trying to find stub IOS you don't have installed. Updating with Pikmin 2 will only install these stubs.
I don't know why people don't want to update through disc. It's the best and safest method, and every game has 4.1 or lower right now. There are no risks.

Is there some other way?
