<title>Gecko OS Not Showing Certain Options (and another question)</title>
<description> EDIT: I just became aware that I posted this in Homebrew General , so if someone could move it to Homebrew Applications, I&amp;#039;d appreciate it.

Whenever I go on Gecko OS (Latest and Oldest avaliable on Homebrew Browser, tried both) it only gives me four options. To boot the game, change the settings, and view the About section. Then, I also see Exit.

My problem is, I know there&amp;#039;s more than four options, such as rebooting the system, launching WiiWare, Virtual Console games, and the such, with Gecko OS. (And for the record, I have proof. Whenever I put my SD Card in my friend&amp;#039;s Wii, It includes all the options.

I&amp;#039;m not sure if this may be the problem, but I have a 4.3 Wii, while my friend is using 4.2. Both have the latest version of the Homebrew Channel, and run Gecko OS.

My second question is (and I&amp;#039;m aware it&amp;#039;s unsupported. I just want to know, just in case something happens) how much of a risk is it to install a System Menu 4.1 WAD (obtained through a tool from the Homebrew Browser that extracted it from my Super Smash Bros. Brawl Disk,mind you), compared to using another tool? Would it still be dangerous? Would it have a greater chance of succeeding?

I would appriciate answers if you have them.</description><link>http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?17,63007,63007#msg-63007</link><lastBuildDate>Wed, 19 Aug 2026 01:06:42 +0200</lastBuildDate>

It&#039;s not dangerous as long as you know what you are doing and you must install the correct IOS for your System Menu version.]]></description>
