pussieLoader testing - system menu rebooter to run from bannerbomb

This is a dol to allow people to copy protected saves without having to install anything to the wii. I am looking for people to test the following...
1) have system menu 4.0 or higher with no DVD in the drive
2) don't have preloader installed
3) turn on the wii
4) immediately use bannerbomb v2 to start this dol [www.multiupload.com] (don't go clicking around all over the place before you start it)
5) see if you can copy any protected saves in the wii data management. the ones with the "copy" button that looks like it should be disabled.
6) rinse and repeat


I am trying to
1) make sure it does, in fact, reboot the system menu and allow you to copy these protected saves
2) see about what percent of the time it freezes. if you test it 10 times, how many times out of 10 does it freeze?


obviously, you are testing beta software. while it should be 100% safe, and make no permanent changes to the wii, i still offer no warranty and completely blame you if something bricks the wii. ive tested it without any crashing or blowing up on my own wii. ive logged 50 tests in a row with it working exactly as planned.

nice name!

There's a cleaner way to do the same thing:
- Have the user insert the matching disc for the save to be copied
- Open the game partition on the disc
- Access the title's data directory using ISFS commands
No haxx needed.

i chose to do it this way for a couple different reasons. by simply patching the system menu to allow it to copy the saves, i dont have to deal with any code that writes to the nand. all that is handled by the system menu. the user also gets a save that can be copied back to the wii using the system menu. this means i dont need to deal with any user input or GUI or settings or talk to the user in any way. i dont even need to init the video or wiimotes. they can use the stuff that nintendo has already made.

Has this worked for anyone?

I having trouble downloading this

Did you click the link?
Try this: [www.megaupload.com]

ya but when I try to open the boot.dol file is says windows can open it and I'm not able to move it to my sd card.

Save the file then put it a folder inside the apps folder on your SD card. Put it on your SD card, not in any folders.

Launch with Bannerbomb.

I pout it there but It doesnt load what I'm I doing wrong, I have no disk in there and dont have preloarder installed.

Run Bannerbomb with the "boot.dol" file on your SD card, not in any folders and without a "boot.elf" file on your SD card either.
That's it.

ok you advice worked but I cant move those files I copied to annother wii

Run pussieLoader on the other Wii as well.

Ok It worked thanks for the help. I did tested it 5 and here the results. 2/5 freeze rate.

Since I started counting, I have have 3 freezes in 19 uses. If I were to guess including pre-counting, I woudl say abotu 7 freezes in just over 50 uses.
