I have been reading several guides as to how to upgrade to the newer mods and system menu. Currently have:
3.2U with SoftMii 2.1.1 (with CIOSCorp and Preloader 0.28), CIOS rev.13. I have been contemplating upgrading so I can have the SDHC support (which I believe comes with 4.0U). Everything runs just fine, with no issues, I just want some of the 4.0 features, my problem however is I remember SoftMii 2.1.1 had a nand dump to save your original IOS files, and I failed to do so, so I just have the CIOSCorp modified IOSs (which is fine as I like the Boot from disc channel), but anyway on to my question, from what I understand, i will need to install Preloader .29 (as it works with 4.0U), then do the safe 4.0 upgrade. But my questions are Am I going to have to do anything special when updating the Preloader seeings I was foolish enough to use SoftMii to begin with, or will just following the Guide work for me in this case? Second, will using the safe 4.0 updater nullify the boot backups from disc channel? I just am cautious as I know one screw up with CIOScorp installed, very well could be your last, and I don't want to chance it. Any advice would be helpful. Thank you
