Questions about upgrading 3.2u to 4.0u

Okay, so I have currently a wii with system update 3.2u and the homebrew channel installed, with other applications installed also. I just bought an 8gb sdhc card, and I'm assuming that the wii won't read it, correct? So if I want the wii to read it, I will need to upgrade to system menu 4.0, but my question is, since I already have the homebrew channel installed, will I loose anything, or will I need to reinstall it, using the bannerbomb exploit.


the applications that i have installed are:
homebrew channel
cIOS36_rev10
menuloader
smw-wii
dvdx
genplus
homebrew_browser
mplayer
playstats
Snes9x



I'm sorry, so I just want to know is it safe for me to update from 3.2 to 4.0, and still enjoy all my homebrew, and now larger sd cards? Thanks. -D4

No. SDHC support is application dependent. Your system menu and games may not be able to use it, but many homebrew applications can.
The Home Brew Channel can use SDHC cards and launch applications from it.
(note: the most recent version (1.0.2) of the HBC has a bug and can't use SDHC cards. That will be fixed (or may already be fixed))

FYI, USBLoader and WADmanager are not supported here. I wouldn't suggest bringing them up again. :)

Its okay, no worries! :D

Its not illegal (i don't think), just not supported by this forum.

In and of themselves, these applications aren't illegal. However, they are often used for piracy.

I feel as though the topics original purpose has been lost...
