Hacking Yet another USB Loader channel

[BigBolt]

Is it safe to use?

whats is necessary to install it?

this channel has been tested, and is completely safe, but there is a little chance you get bricked, but if you have preloader installed, you will be safe

this channel looks great. One quick question before i install it. Is this okay to use on a NTSC (usa) console.

Thanks

Here's an existing forwarder channel. Try working off of it:

I'll post it tomorrow, got a hard test (Dutch: "tentamen") on school so I need some rest. I also tweak the banner a bit and remove the '1.1'.

A forwarder version of your original channel without the v1.1 would be great. I'll be sure to download that.

Added the forwarder versions, put the boot.dol in \apps\usb_loader\.

And to all ppl who were asking questions:
It works on PAL and NTSC(/J) (region free) just as all the other homebrew wads.

EDIT: removed post. waste of my time

 

[FenrirWolf]

Awesome. Thanks for making that forwarder channel!

EDIT: Ack, it gives me a code dump when I try it.

 

[grakje]

It sometimes gives a code dump, especially after powering on my Wii

 

[FenrirWolf]

I haven't got it to work at all.

Any time you install a channel wad file you run the risk of bricking, but it pretty much only happens if you install a badly created channel. Still, you want to have Starfall and the TP Hack or Preloader just in case something goes wrong.

Channel that doesn't load the .dol from itself, but the one that's installed on your sd card. In this case in dir /apps/usb_loader. Advantage is when usb loader 1.2 comes, you don't have to reinstall the wad, but only have to replace the .dol v1.1 to .dol v1.2.

Hope you understand right now

 

[FenrirWolf]

So does the forwarder work for anyone?

 

[RavRob]

How do I install this WAD? Just put the wad in the root of my SD card and load with WAD manager?

 

[FenrirWolf]

Yeah, that's all there is to it.

 

[RavRob]

Tx and sorry for the n00b questions.

Code dump here too, shame.
