Thats what happens when you mess with stuff like WADS. We dont support those here.
Unfortunately, seeing as you dont have bootmii boot2 or preloader, I dont know of a way to help you. Perhaps a Savemii auto-boot disc will help you.

I honestly have no experience with savemii. I just know that it can help sometimes. Perhaps someone with more experience will come to help you. Sorry.

We support some WADs, but WADs made with WADder we do not support.

Unless you can boot burned, Trucha-signed discs, there is nothing we can do.

technically, WADder 3.0 == ChannelMaker 3, and is also pretty much the same as CustomizeMii, only CustomizeMii is it ported to another language (c# I think) with a few bug fixes. They just cant use the name WADder on WiiBrew because it implies copyright infringement.

As long as you talk about WADder 3.0, it's fine then. Really, you just can't talk about WADs pirated wholesale or made with illegal base WADs.

Regardless of what System Menu he is on, there is nothing we can do now.

No, but you will need a chip to fix your wii.

Did you patch the trucha bug into IOS 60?

Install a chip, make an autoboot WAD Manager or AnyTitle Deleter disc and put it in your wii, and put the bad WAD file in the wad folder on the root of your SD card if you use WAD Manager. Then insert a Savemii into your wii or use Savemiifrii (google it if you are not familiar with it) while you turn on the wii and WAD Manager or AnyTitle Deleter will start. Uninstall the WAD.

You will need a special tool to make the autoboot disc. I can't remember where this can be found or the name of it. Could someone please post a link to it?

Fiddling with custom WADs without BootMii or Preloader is pretty much suicide.
