yeah what xflak40 said, i actually going out to buy a new SD because of compatibility issues. they are sure to be fixed on a future revision of preloader. But it seems a good idea to have a sure thing.

Ah, lucky! lol

Hi
got preloader .30 on myWII 4.2 on the run. First installed 0.29 then updated to .30. The only Question i have:
What hacks do you activate. All or only a few of them. And what do the hacks mean. For example: Move disk channel......

Thanks to all for your help.

I read the entire thread. Still no explanation of what every setting can do within the preloader setting menu.

I really only understand what autoboot and return to does. What about the rest?

find the preloader0.30r4 installer/uninstaller thread download it stick it on your SD card, boot up HBC through your system menu and run the installer

Is Preloader 0.29 compatible with 3.4U firmware?

Thanks

none or the versions of Preloader is compatible with 3.4, you need to go to 3.2 or 4.X..!!


Q: Now that I installed Preloader v0.30, whenever I go back to the SysMenu, it's like if I turned OFF and then ON my Wii (the safety scren appears again), how can I avoid this...?? my settings say "Autoboot: SysMenu" and "Go Back To: SysMenu"

You must put it in apps folder and rename the *.dol into boot.dol. BUT: Do you have any version of preloader installed?? IF
not you also need a hacks.ini in the root depending on what WII version u use. If you never used preloader, then please read
the howto on WIKI http://www.wiibrew.org/wiki/Preloader.

You need a patched ios 70 installed on your Wii to run preloader or you will get a black screen on startup.
