Starfall Question

Okay, I've been using starfall for a while to apply various patches to my wii. Everything works great, but I just had a question about the "Hold Y on first gamecube controller for Rescue Menu". I installed it to see what it does, and (after launching to the system menu through bootmii) I hold Y, and a little notification appears in the bottom right hand corner that says my firmware version (3.2) and my region (NTSC). What exactly is the point of this? Any info is appreciated! :)

There is a recovery menu built into the wii. If your wii is semi-bricked and you find a disc that comes with a newer firmware version, then you can boot into the recovery menu (through various methods) put in the disc and after it installs the updates you have a no longer semi-bricked wii. I know that Team Tweezers made this: [savemii.net] to get into recovery menu to update your wii and unbrick it.

I see. Kind of useless since i have bootmii as boot2 (with 3 NAND backups!! :O)
Thanks for the info. Will it autoboot a game if i insert one while its in this menu?

Yes, if you have the Starfall patch that skips the diag disc check, or whatever its called.. (I don't use Starfall...)

It doesn't autostart discs with that option it only installs the updates off of the disc.

LOL 3 backups!?!?!?! If you are so bricked that something is corrupt in those 3 backups then man your wii is screwed. Talk about over-protective. I don't have any backups... I currently have been messing with doing work for the HBB channel... I hope that FS Browser and AnyTitle Deleter is enough to recover.

Yah, i figured out how to make it autoboot.


The reason I have so many backups is a long story. Go take a look at this thread that I made to learn why. Its actually kind of interesting. Its not because I'm paranoid. Just go look at the thread.... :P
