So if I get this right
I installed
cIOS36v7 on top of IOS249?
Q1:
Why didn't I just install cIOS36v7 on top of IOS36??
You don't wan't to modify the official IOS36 that is used by the wii system or games, do you ? Leave it as it is !

Q2:
What's the difference vs
cIOS36 and IOS249??
None, cIOS36 (=patched IOS36) is installed with the number IOS249 on the WII. It's just an index.

Q3:
If IOS249 is a patched version of IOS36, why isn't it called cIOS249 ??
Because it means 'customized version of IOS36'
Perhaps you could ask ... why do I install a custom IOS on my wii (say cIOS36) ?
Because, when you create a software or a game for the wii, you have to specify what IOS version it will use.
Now, say you wan't to create a software that read a DVD-R on you wii. You can't because official Nintendo IOSes won't let you do that.
The only way to do this is to take an official IOS (IOS36 if you wan't), patch it to read DVD-R and install it as IOS249
Now, you can create your software, specifying it will use IOS249, et voilà, you can read DVD-R on your Wii, without touching the official Nintendo system.
