Hey guys, does anybody have a WAD of the Riivolution Channel? I can't install it through the app itself (when I pick "Install" it just shows "failure -2") and for some reason can't find a downloadlink anywhere. I already searched through the MarioCube respository, no luck either. If anybody could rip theirs with YABDM or something and sent it to me, that would be really awesome.
 
I tried ripping mine and sending it to someone, it said that the console ID was mismatched or something like that.
I'm not at all sure if this is the issue, but are you using a Wii Motion Plus Wiimote?

Nope, just the normal Wiimote. Nothing else attached to the console, either. Weirdly enough, I already had the channel installed. I then went onto the Wii Shop Channel (no specific reason) and when I came back, the Riivolution Channel was gone. I read somewhere else that the same thing has happened to somebody else. It appears the Riivolution Channel is somehow connected to the Wii Shop Channel? I have no idea what's going on. Are there any alternative forwarders for Riivolution? Otherwise this'd be a real bummer.

EDIT: For future reference, I now know what was causing me the trouble, when trying to install the channel through Riivolution itself. A while ago I used a program called "elf to dol converter" to convert all of my .elf-files to .dol-files. Seeing as how the Channel tries to find a "boot.elf" file, that's probably what caused the problem (even though it's still weird it won't even let you install the channel in the first place). After replacing my old "boot.dol" with the original "boot.elf" file, I could install it with no trouble. I also immediately ripped the channel with BlumeDump.
