Hacking Were you able to install BootMii as boot2?

[kyle007]

yeah i get what your saying wiipower but its like assuming ALL LU64 wii's can't be downgraded and black screen on apps etc etc not every single LU64 wii in existence does that thats just the point im trying to make you cant assume a single serial number will have 100% success rate older post in here says his worked on a LU57 assuming nintendo uses chronological order of any kind means a LU57 should be a newer model but that would also mean some newer models don't have boot1 fixed by some fluke (all this is assuming nintendo has some kinda order to the serial numbers like LU14 is an older console etc etc and LU64-65 being the newer ones ) would it be possible at all to find an exploit to read the area where people said it stores the SHA or MD5 i dont remember exactly whats stored in that location and also something about the fake sign bug on boot1 (i think thats why it wont load boot2 if its fake signed with the newer models because boot1 has the fake sign bug fixed) is there anyway to reintroduce it to boot1 if we had all the necessary keys etc etc

installed sweet like a dream, my wii is one of the first ones released in the uk. No problems so far with the homebrew channel or loading from the sdcard had problems trying to back the nand up to sdcard tho

but alas all working fine and dandy

 

[Dodi]

Yup. Just installed it

I've had mine since launch.

 

[madtamski]

Hmmmm so far 77% of those who tried the boot2 install have been successful.

That's pretty good btw

Oh, and I was one of them

*edit* as of 18th it's now just over 80%

Just got my wii this past Christmas. No Boot 2 bootmii for me

 

[ToneEQ]

LEH10... Odd serial

Not for europe!

 

[raulpica]

Launch Wii. Installed to boot2 without a problem

 

[Armadillo]

Yes. Got mine end of 07 I think.

Anybody rewrite old boot2-64-v2.wad on wiis?

I see boot2-64-v2.wad in wii disc.

perhaps can install bootmii??

What do you mean? If you want to place BootMii boot2 on discs and then update with that disc, it might work. But it will brick the Wiis that are not compatible. It's really bad full brick like the one from not having preloader and deleting the system menu or it's IOS.

Thank your answer,I fully understand.

If my wii don't install bootmii as boot2,can't install old boot2.wad in my wii.

 

[XeroCure]

Yes. I have a very early Wii, almost launch-day

I got mine around ~September 2008, so I think I got it just in time.

Damn, I got mine in September 2008 and can only install Bootmii as an IOS

 

[Soplox]

yep launch wii

 

[orno]

[ThetaSigma10]

AAARGH *sob* dec 08 PAl wii. no boot2 for me

do you think ill ever be able to install it on boot2?

 

[disguises]

Launch Wii, but i feel nintendo gave me a new motherboard when i sent it back to them last month even though they stated it was a 'software' problem

 

[schnitzelbrain]

Mmmh
If we drop the not installed once, its about 20% of people tried ar not able to install as boot2.

On mine, launch Wii installed as Boot2

 

[jan777]

i guess mine was a launch wii too(dont really know, had 2.2j firmware on it - i was stuck on 2.2 until they released 3.3)

i bought it about november the year it was released

it was stocked up there for a long time for nobody wanted to buy it because it was a japanese system

now i have a fully functional USA wii thanks to homebrew
