Hi guys! I bought a Wii two days ago. I have version 3.4E (I choose not to upgrade it when the option was available to me.) Should I upgrade from Nintendo or leave it? First off I wonder if I have got it right now: 1. I have my SD Card (2gb non SDHC) -> PS: Can I use a bigger size card, I also have a 8gb SDHC card laying around, I thought I could save some movies on that one for the kids to watch if it is usable 2. Download and extract file "aad1f_v108.zip" from ->[bannerbomb.qoid.us] to SD card which gives me this folder structure: ->private\wii\title\aktn\ with file in content.bin no other files are present at this time 3. Download the HackMii installer version version beta2 -> Extract theese files in the ROOT of the SD Card -CREDITS -installer.elf -> Rename it to boot.elf -LICENSE README This gives me this folder structure: private\wii\title\aktn\content.bin CREDITS (Found out it is not needed :)) boot.elf LICENSE (Found out it is not needed :)) README (Found out it is not needed :)) 4. Insert SD Card -> Go through Data management and follow the tutorials. Follow up questions: 1. Is there anything else I need to check out before I start my installation of the Homebrew channel? 2. After installing, if I start the Wii without the SD card what happens then? 3. The tuts say that warranty is void if I do this - If Wii crashes (at some point in time) is there anyway to get the warranty back? Reverting the system or any other ways? Thanks in advance, I feel like a totalt neewb here so help is appreciated. I don't want to crash my box :)http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?24,29422,29422#msg-29422Sun, 19 Apr 2026 01:25:44 +0200 Phorum 5.2.23 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?24,29422,29563#msg-29563 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?24,29422,29563#msg-29563 tormi Getting StartedTue, 18 Aug 2009 11:33:04 +0200 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?24,29422,29559#msg-29559 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?24,29422,29559#msg-29559 SifJar Getting StartedTue, 18 Aug 2009 11:03:41 +0200 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?24,29422,29536#msg-29536 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?24,29422,29536#msg-29536
But is there no one that can answer the SD card question?

And also about the updating of the Wii. I guess after Homebrew is installed you NEVER use the original platform for updating right?]]> tormi Getting StartedTue, 18 Aug 2009 07:52:30 +0200 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?24,29422,29433#msg-29433 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?24,29422,29433#msg-29433

I will get to this tonight or tomorrow then.

Where do I get boot2 from? I shold have that file + the boot.elf then right?

Also if anybody knows which SD cards would work on this? Am I bound to use the 2gb or can I go higher?

Will homebrew let me stream .avi and .wmv movies from my server via wireless access?]]> tormi Getting StartedMon, 17 Aug 2009 14:44:09 +0200 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?24,29422,29426#msg-29426 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?24,29422,29426#msg-29426 TopGun96 Getting StartedMon, 17 Aug 2009 14:30:15 +0200 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?24,29422,29422#msg-29422 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?24,29422,29422#msg-29422
