The title that now says do not touch?
Not quite. when you turn on your wiiU ColdBootHaxChi displays a message about autobooting. When you see that message press the SYNC button on the WiiU. You will then get a menu where you can now choose to run the homebrew launcher. Then load wupinstaller y and install the homebrew channel. That is what I did last night and it worked with no problem.

If it doesn't want to install, perhaps your copy is corrupt, so re-download the files again.

Yes, you can run that. The message is simply there for when you're in Data Management, warning you not to delete or move it to USB. It is perfectly safe to run it from the menu.

Or you can do what @eroz76 said and reboot your Wii U, press the SYNC button on the CBHC menu, then launch HBL from there.

Use Mocha CFW, and install the latest version. You don't need a fw.img file, and Mocha will just disable signature checks and patches; on your system nand.
Its all good now. I have coldboot haxchi install as well as the homebrew launcher installed as a channel. I looked into mocha but I don't believe it lets you disable signature checks and patches at launch which is why I like coldboot haxchi. I also wanted easy access to the homebrew launcher from the dashboard so yeah anyway its all good now. this thread can actually be deleted for any admin who reads this.

Meh, Mocha does actually disable Signature checks for software. Hence why you're able to launch the HBL.

I know mocha does that. Im saying i prefer coodboot haxchi because it does it all as soon as i turn on the system. with mocha I still have launch it every time i turn on the system. If it can be launched automatically at startup like coldboot haxchi then by all means id love to know how but from what I've read it doesnt.

Understandable, but I don't have the requirements for haxchi or redNAND; hence why I'm using Mocha, for the time being.

You can use both CBHC and Mocha at the same time. I've been doing that.

ok but whats the point of using mocha and CBHC id CBHC is already loading the cfw doing what mocha does. Thats how my setup is anyway
I'm not able to use a CFW, or emunand that is. Since I don't have a 64GB SD Card at the moment. But, I prefer Mocha. I'm even starting to work on a fork of Mocha, maybe I'll release it in the future.

    i thought everybody knew cocktails are like 75% ice
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Yeah but not like this.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's not like they're complaining that their Slurpee is 99% ice or something, but if the cocktail calls for "shot of vodka, shot of vermouth, shot of gin, shot of Campari, three shots of juice, squirt of lemon" and ends up being a thimbleful of booze, that's a problem.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    the funny thing is cocktails in norway are only allowed to have 1 20ml shot of booze
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    so..... yeah
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    we're used to only having a thimbleful of booze
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Booo.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    same thing if you want whisky on the rocks or something, you can't get a double
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    but you could buy as many shots of whisky (or anything else) as you want and ask for a glass of ice and pour them in
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    it's dumb
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Maybe.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    There was a comparison of the number of Ibuprofen poisonings before and after they limited the maximum dosage per box or per pill (i'll look that up). No limit on the number of boxes you can still buy as many as you want, so people argued it was pointless.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    But the number of (accidental) poisonings dropped because drinking an entire package of ibuprofen pills went from "I need a new liver" to "I need a new box of Ibuprofen".
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Here we have ketoprofen that used to be prescription-only because of the risk of toxic dosages, but then they halved the dose per pill and sell them in bottles of six pills apiece instead of twenty and it doesn't need a prescription any more. Yes you can buy more than one bottle but people simply don't.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Usually accidentally overdose of ibuprofen here is from people taking like cold medicine then ibuprofen for a headache and the combination is over what they need
