No, sorry, its not supported here. Also, there's really no way to safely downgrade. I thought you said you wanted to upgrade?

Sorry. Just go ahead and do it, it won't brick your wii. I'm basically 99.999999999999999999999999999% sure that it won't brick your wii, but anything is possible.

dude tanks but just in case do you any ways of unbricking the wii

Yeah, if you have bootmii installed as boot2, its virtually impossible to brick your wii and not be able to fix it. Its bundled in with the hackmii installer, you might not be able to install it though...

why?????????
Re: updating the wii

Because to install it as boot2, you need to have a vulnerable boot1. Most newer wii's have a newer version of boot1, thus not being able to install bootmii as boot2. I all depends on how old your wii is. When did you get your wii? If you got it in mid-08, you'll probably be fine, but it should tell you on the hackmii installer if you can install it or not.

if it was with the new version of HBC then i think i have it

Actually, if you had it as boot2, you'd know, because it boots to a new screen (bootmii) instead of the system menu.
