Sorry if this has been asked before, but most of the topics I've found are out of date.
I recently picked up Kirby's Epic Yarn and turned on my Wii for the first time since Monster Hunter Tri came out. I got a message about upgrading to firmware 4.3, so I jumped online and did a bit of research. I found a bunch of update methods, but can't figure out which is "right". I also read that one of the older methods (boot2 I think) actually caused systems to brick. I was going to use HackMii, but the instructions seem out of date and are unclear. Due to being out of the homebrew scene for awhile (and paranoid), I decided to come here and ask for some help before doing anything. So, what is the "proper" method to get 4.3 installed on my Wii while retaining Homebrew support?
I can get Epic Yarn to play by launching it in Gecko OS, so that's not the problem. I just want to be able to access the Shop channel and not worry about someone (my brother for example) installing an update and locking me out of HBC, or worse, bricking the system.
Thanks ahead of time to anyone who can help me out.
