Hacking Strange BootMii issues

[Kosaic]

I have the following installed on this Wii.

Few Details .......
Wii - originally on 3.3U
first - Twighlight Hack (the old fashioned way)
next - IOS16-64-v257-prod.wad
next - cIOS36_rev8
next - Backup Launcher & Opera Browser (wad's)
next - cMIOS_rev3
next - IOS60-64-NUS-v6174 [Patched][FreeTheBug].wad
next - cIOS36_rev9
next - Waninkoko's Firmware 4.0 Update
next - IOS61-64-NUS-v4890.wad & RVL-Shopping-NUS-v16.wad
next - IOS60/61 Installer/Patcher (no, yes, yes, no)
next - cIOS36_rev13a
next - Pre-Loader 0.29
next - BootMii as boot2

Now, when I boot the Wii, I just get a black screen (with bootmii set to "5" seconds) It just hangs on the black screen
I can get to pre-loader no problem, and boot my Wii that way (via "reset" button)
If I set the bootmii config to "0" , and "sysmenu" , it boots the Wii no problem ...

Everything on the Wii works perfectly, and not one error during ANY of the above installs.

What did I jig up ? Why does BootMii hang on a black screen ... ?

Thanks !

Did you set the video mode in the config.ini to what it should be for your TV? If it's not that it's probably an sd card issue.

try booting without the SD card in, see if that load you up after a few seconds.

and... why did you bother installing cIOS_rev8, then cIOS_rev10, then cIOS_rev13 or whichever order you did it in lol

you shoul dhave just installed the highest rev first and saved the time.

I'll give this a try ...

I always install the cIOS this way, as I've had good luck and never had a brick ... Call me old fashioned

I'm sure however you are correct, and I can just use the latest one, and install it first.

Ok, with SD card completely out, it boots right into the System Menu (in a couple of seconds)

Not sure what this proves, but what is next ?

Still get black screen with bootmii set to anything other than 0 seconds in the bootmii.ini file.

btw, the SD cards seems to work fine, and all programs work with it ... even bootmii mounted it just fine, and wrote the necessary files to it (so not convinced it is an SD issue)

SD card is not compatible, try another

 

[MikeyTaylorGaming]

agreed, dont know exactly if the SD isnt compatible, but you'll get a better idea if another SD card works with it, just use one thats lying around if you have one spare

 

[Kosaic]

Off to try another SD now ... stay tuned

 

[MikeyTaylorGaming]

oh i will, dont worry

 

[Kosaic]
