HackMii Installer v0.5 Trouble

Downloaded file and placed on SD card with Indiana Pwns in root directory. Wii does not recognize boot.elf file. Start up, Wii Menu, Data Management, Add Channels, SD Card, no card inserted, insert card....nothing. Just a block of empty channels. Unit did update to v4.2 on Tuesday. Any help on what I am doing wrong?

Don't have LIJ, but It'd be save data (a la TP) as opposed to a channel, no?

Looked into Save Data also, only shows 3 files for the Indiana Pwns, English, Japanese and...some other languange...cannot remember. The boot.elf is not being recognized for some reason. Not even showing up on card when in the Wii. Checked it several times on the PC and it is on the card. Tried using a 2GB SD formatted FAT with files and a 4GB SDHC formatted with FAT32. Either one would not work. Would not pull up the window to Load boot.dol / elf? for HBC. Any help?

Well, you are meant to transfer Indiana Pwns to your Wii... launch the Lego Indiana Jones game, then head to the art room (I think?) and that will launch the boot.elf.

I will give this a try and see if I can get it to work that way. Thank you for the recommendations.

Yes, you transfer the correct save region to your wii, run lego indiana jones, go to the art room, and then look at the second picture. Then it should recognize the boot.elf.

This exploit isn't like bannerbomb. It won't just appear in the data management. Just do what PhoenixTank and I said, and it should work. :)

Thanks to WaxyPumpkin72 and PhoenixTank. I will post the results when I get this attempted. Grats to both.

Great! Tell us your results! :D

Got Home Brew Channel up and running! Thanks guys. Now if I can just figure out how to run my back ups. Keeps asking me if I am sure they are ISO9660? They used to work, but now they are not. I will keep working at it.

Thanks for your help on getting Home Brew reinstalled!

They just updated DVDx's title ID, it seems that none of the apps recognize the new DVDx currently.

And you are not meaning Wii game backups...?

These are back ups that I created using WiiScrubber. They would work on the old Home Brew Channel, but now I keep getting this error. I am not sure if I will need to redo the scrub on them and save them as something else or not. I will need to do more research I guess to make sure. I usually make back ups for all the discs and keep the originals safe...with 3 grandkids, it is a requirement!

WiiBrew does not support or condone the usage of backups. Such being the case, discussion of them is strictly prohibited in all areas of the WiiBrew Forums.
