Hi,

I keep this short.

I watched this youtube video over how to install emuNAND ( )

The video is really simple and easy. So watch it please.

My Question is what version of Wiiflow is he using at 0:20 and where can I get that one?
 
it "emulate" the NAND.
In fact the correct word would be "redirect" the NAND.

All NAND access are redirected to SD or USB, where you have a copy of your real NAND files.
The game then use/read/write to SD or USB instead of the files located on your Wii.

The advantage :
You have 2TB of space to store your games (Wiiware channels, VC channels, Mii, Savegame, etc.) instead of the limited 512MB of internal Wii memory.
You can manage the installed channels on your PC.
You can install channels without the risk of corrupting your real Wii (it a channel is bad, you can delete the wrong channel with your PC)
 
channels works (they launch), but online doesn't work fine with WiiWare games.

there are two EmuNAND mode :
cIOS : the cIOS is loaded from RealNAND, and the loader launched from RealNAND asks it to redirect all NAND access. It's a "shared" (mixed/not really emulated) mode, as it still run from RealNAND, the Wii can still access NAND and the cIOS redirect some files to SD or USB.
neek : The console boot in a full Emulated environement. There's no cIOS, only official IOS working as if it was a real Wii. The RealNAND is never accessed.

neek mode has better compatibility (as it use real IOS, not patched one), and the nand redirection is not done by the IOS. the IOS doesn't know it's not running on a real Wii.


Wiiflow has both cIOS and neek mode, with 100% compatibility.
USBLoaderGX has only the cIOS mode (90% compatibility, no online with WiiWare).
You can also boot in "neek" mode without a loader. you use Sneek or Uneek or Neek2o, and you will be in emulated System menu where you can access all menus/settings/launch games like if you where on a real Wii.
