Hacking Stable Nand Dumper + RedNAND

[ItsKipz]

Unfortunately, that won't work. Wii VC titles won't work because vWii is currently broken on redNAND.

Got it. So this only allows for installing titles right now, no vWii or homebrew forwarders?

The OP for that post (the megathread one) is the outdated one, but in the last few pages of comments I uploaded the precompiled version (if you are on the right thread). Just like I've told others I won't link to it because of GBATemp rules, but that should be enough info to find it.

Now for me to get a hold of safe/clean fw.img, that might not be so easy as there are a lot of them floating around, some safe, others, shady, that's gonna be fun. And yes, this one was posted a few hours ago.

Look around the last few pages of that thread for a post by TheCyberQuake, You'll find a precompiled fw.img.

Yeah, so currently regular users won't feel much of a difference compared to sysNAND.

Well, it's really all about progress. Installing titles and loading into redNAND is enough progress for me!

The big difference is that you can install titles with fake tickets - allowing users to install DLC with the brazilian method

If i just dump my sysnand with dimok's dumper and not use the redNAND is it okay? So i don't want to format my sysnand if the dump finished.

Yeah, sure. You can dump the NAND and not have to use redNAND.
You can use it as a backup, just in case.

AFAIK, you can use redNAND without formatting sysNAND

Yes. You can simply dump your nand and stop there. The wiiu will reboot and you can just eject your sd. If you did want to use rednand it would boot the next time you ran dimok's fw.img.

I thought people advised against that?

They did??? What does formatting sysNAND do? I thought they were like linked together?

Got RedNAND up and running, NAND backed up and stored safely. Thanks to WiiUBru team.

AFAIK, you have to un-link the RedNAND from SysNAND. @x65943 Is this true?

 

[Hadobedo]

How would I go about formatting my sysNAND? Would I just go to settings and format it like normal?

 

[barak06]

OK. I have installed 50 games on a HDD drive / sysnand. They still will be seen with rednand ?

Yes, as long as you don't format sysNAND.

I'm curious now, some people say to format SysNAND when you use RedNAND, others are saying not to format it, which is it?

The answer is still up in the air.
If you asked people in Wiiubru, some will tell you to format, while others will tell you not to format.
It might be a placebo for all we know.

All I know is that if you format sysNAND, all your USBs linked to that Wii U will have to be formatted again.

I guess formatting is optional to do...something? What does formatting do exactly, other than wipe your sysNAND?
