fading pine Dec 23, 2024, 5:08 PM

dense geyser Dec 23, 2024, 5:08 PM

#

#

fading pine Dec 23, 2024, 5:09 PM

#

#

fading pine does the disc slot light up when you turn on the wii

Do other wiis don't do that (obv. not wii mini)?

#

I thought most of them did

fading pine Dec 23, 2024, 5:09 PM

#

agile ginkgo Do other wiis don't do that (obv. not wii mini)?

only if boot2 bootmii is installed iirc

agile ginkgo Dec 23, 2024, 5:09 PM

#

fading pine only if boot2 bootmii is installed iirc

My wii does it tho (black 2008 one)

fading pine Dec 23, 2024, 5:09 PM

#

idk then

fading pine Dec 23, 2024, 5:10 PM

#

dense geyser its the original white wii with the gamecube stuff

does the wii power on without the sd?

dense geyser Dec 23, 2024, 5:10 PM

#

yes

#

im pretty sure

fading pine Dec 23, 2024, 5:10 PM

#

probably doesn

#

t have bootmii

dense geyser Dec 23, 2024, 5:10 PM

#

fading pine Dec 23, 2024, 5:11 PM

#

it would be outside there

#

in a bootmii directory

dense geyser Dec 23, 2024, 5:11 PM

#

fading pine Dec 23, 2024, 5:11 PM

#

scroll up

#

i already found out

#

someone beat you to the chase

#

i got this

#

please

dense geyser Dec 23, 2024, 5:12 PM

#

not really an issue i just want to delete the old stuff and install the modern stuff

fading pine Dec 23, 2024, 5:13 PM

#

SHUT UP

dense geyser Dec 23, 2024, 5:13 PM

#

i dont even use windows

#

tooBad

fading pine Dec 23, 2024, 5:14 PM

#

so, you are probably safe to wipe the sd card, but keep a copy of it somewhere else just in case

dense geyser Dec 23, 2024, 5:14 PM

#

ofc

#

its moving

fading pine Dec 23, 2024, 5:15 PM

#

alr

#

judgimg from the wii's age, it'll probably support an exploit that will allow for a very powerful form of brick protection

dense geyser Dec 23, 2024, 5:17 PM

#

wilbrand?

#

also the system is on version 4.3e

unique onyx Dec 23, 2024, 5:18 PM

#

fading pine SHUT UP

why

#

that is the way to fix it

#

please do this

fading pine Dec 23, 2024, 5:19 PM

#

unique onyx that is the way to fix it

they dont have windows

unique onyx Dec 23, 2024, 5:19 PM

#

ugh

#

we still need a syscheck

dense geyser Dec 23, 2024, 5:19 PM

#

fading pine Dec 23, 2024, 5:19 PM

#

i know

#

just let me try

unique onyx Dec 23, 2024, 5:20 PM

#

dense geyser

do you actually use your computer or do you spend all your time compiling stuff 😭

fading pine Dec 23, 2024, 5:20 PM

#

its fine as long as you use multiple cores

dense geyser Dec 23, 2024, 5:20 PM

#

unique onyx do you actually use your computer or do you spend all your time compiling stuff ...

i compile my main PC while on classes or on the GYM and I compile my laptop on the weekend, so i dont actually lose time

fading pine Dec 23, 2024, 5:20 PM

#

smart

fading pine Dec 23, 2024, 5:21 PM

#

unique onyx

anyways, one of the first things you'll want to do is this

#

like harry said

dense geyser Dec 23, 2024, 5:22 PM

#

so, i will need my SD card with the stuff it alr has right?

fading pine Dec 23, 2024, 5:22 PM

#

provably not

#

just put syscheck on there

dense geyser Dec 23, 2024, 5:23 PM

#

isnt the homebrew channel inside my SD card?

fading pine Dec 23, 2024, 5:25 PM

#

no

#

its on the wii

dense geyser Dec 23, 2024, 5:25 PM

#

damn, im even more clueless than i though

fading pine Dec 23, 2024, 5:25 PM

#

or at least, it should be

#

if its on the wii menu with the mii channel and stuff, its on the wii

dense geyser Dec 23, 2024, 5:26 PM

#

yes, it is

#

then what is on the SD card?

fading pine Dec 23, 2024, 5:26 PM

#

channels and saves can be moved or copied there

fading pine Dec 23, 2024, 5:26 PM

#

dense geyser then what is on the SD card?

and also homebrew apps

#

also, if you plan on using usbloadergx or wiiflow, i recommend storing games on a usb HARD DRIVE (flash drives will die fast in this use case)

dense geyser Dec 23, 2024, 5:27 PM

#

oh so i can just remove the stuff and add the modern programs without actually losing data

fading pine Dec 23, 2024, 5:27 PM

#

yeah

#

BUT

#

chances are you are using outdated cIOS

#

and you do not have bootmii installed

dense geyser Dec 23, 2024, 5:28 PM

#

which is why i need the test thing

fading pine Dec 23, 2024, 5:28 PM

#

yeah

dense geyser Dec 23, 2024, 5:28 PM

#

syscheck

#

ok

fading pine Dec 23, 2024, 5:28 PM

#

exactly

#

fyi: in order to install bootmii, run the HackMii Installer

dense geyser Dec 23, 2024, 5:29 PM

#

not really sure what an cIOS is but i assume i just gota install them using cIOS_Installer

fading pine Dec 23, 2024, 5:29 PM

#

nope

#

don't use any of the old apps

#

delete them

#

see https://wii.hacks.guide/cios.html

cIOS | Wii Hacks Guide

The complete guide to modding your Wii, vWii, and Wii mini

dense geyser Dec 23, 2024, 5:31 PM

#

i was looking for that

fading pine Dec 23, 2024, 5:32 PM

#

also i see priiloader on the old app folder, we'll need to update that too

unique onyx Dec 23, 2024, 5:32 PM

#

can we please get a syscheck first and work from there

fading pine Dec 23, 2024, 5:33 PM

#

unique onyx can we please get a syscheck first and work from there

yes

#

syscheck is top priority

#

brb

dense geyser Dec 23, 2024, 5:35 PM

#

i cant do it rn so im just tryna understand what to do after that, but ye ill follow the guide in the website ig i just gota check for the cIOS, update them with the guide, and install and update bootmii, d2x cIOS isntaller, priiloader (and backup my NAND)

fading pine Dec 23, 2024, 5:39 PM

#

#

dense geyser Dec 23, 2024, 5:40 PM

#

fading pine Dec 23, 2024, 5:41 PM

#

dense geyser Dec 23, 2024, 5:46 PM

#

#

#

unique onyx Dec 23, 2024, 5:48 PM

#

don't touch them for now

dense geyser Dec 23, 2024, 5:48 PM

#

yes

#

wait is bootmii that one program that its like a bootloader and asked everytime if i wanted to boot the homebrew channel or the wii menu?

#

i think my dad installed it as boot2

#

not sure if i deleted it

#

#

definitly

#

oh well i gota install it again ig

#

ok so is this the correct order?
syscheck >> install IOS (if needed) >> bootmii >> priiloader

#

and then wiilink

#

well, thanks guys

unique onyx Dec 23, 2024, 6:06 PM

#

dense geyser ok so is this the correct order? syscheck >> install IOS (if needed) >> bootmii ...

please wait for someone to check over your syscheck before you go onto do anything else

dense geyser Dec 23, 2024, 6:08 PM

#

dense geyser Dec 23, 2024, 6:27 PM

unique onyx Dec 23, 2024, 6:29 PM

#

dense geyser Dec 23, 2024, 6:29 PM

#

yes

#

#

this is finding some bad blocks in the nand

unique onyx Dec 23, 2024, 6:41 PM

#

that's perfectly normal

dense geyser Dec 23, 2024, 6:44 PM

#

ok i pressed on the backup button again

#

📎 SysCheck.csv

unique onyx Dec 23, 2024, 6:56 PM

#

ok you're pretty much alright

dense geyser Dec 23, 2024, 6:56 PM

#

cool

unique onyx Dec 23, 2024, 6:57 PM

#

you have cios on 222, 224 and 236, which you should remove to prevent compatibility

#

your cios on the main slots is outdated

#

and you don't have bootmii ios

#

but everything else is fine

dense geyser Dec 23, 2024, 6:57 PM

#

unique onyx and you don't have bootmii ios

i have boot2

unique onyx Dec 23, 2024, 6:57 PM

#

dense geyser Dec 23, 2024, 6:57 PM

#

unique onyx Dec 23, 2024, 6:57 PM

#

yes

dense geyser Dec 23, 2024, 6:59 PM

#

#

i installed it i think, but idk where it is

unique onyx Dec 23, 2024, 6:59 PM

#

you access it by holding reset while powering on the console

dense geyser Dec 23, 2024, 6:59 PM

#

ohhh

#

#

#

and then remove IOS 222, 224 and 236

dense geyser Dec 23, 2024, 7:00 PM
