Hacking Softmodding problem

[poodles]

Hi Guys,

after hours and hours I am hitting a brick wall on my wii...
I followed the softmod instructions and got to the point where I need to install the cIOS38.
I start it as a network install and in the last installation step it returns with an error message saying the following:

Installing custom ios
install error ret:-1035

Can someone help me out with this? I don't know what I am doing wrong...

Thanks.

Anyone?!?!?!?
I really need your help on this...

can I just reinstall the IOS36 from NUS and then reinstall the TRUCHA BUG?

or

should I start fresh and follow the complete guide again beginning with Bootmii and so on...

Please help a noob...

no. just do TBR again then try to reinstall 249.

thanks, but isn't 249 an IOS stub (no functionality)?
how is that going to help me?

Re-installing an IOS249 that ISN'T a stub will help you

Nintendo originally didn't use IOS249. Nintendo's only purpose for using IOS249 was just to stop the running of homebrew.

cIOS38rev16 installs as cios249 slot on your wii. just do TBR to bug your ios36 for you to install ciOS38rev16 (aka249rev16)

btw.: in installing cIOS38rev16, use the bugged ios36.

i was able to run the trucha bug restorer per your help, but when i try to install the Cios38rev16 through the bugged ios36 i get the error message "installation error ret=-1035".

what am i doing wrong?

please help...

ok, i finally done it...

I installed the TBR with v1.11 and then deleted ios249 with anytitle deleter. after that i installed the cIOS249 from the wad manager and I was able to install the cios38 rev16

Thanks for all your help!

one more question - do I need to install the Hermes patch as well and do I need to uninstall the IOS 222, 223, 250,.. before I do so?

Thanks
