What Does IOS BootMii Do For Us?

First of all, I'd like to say... AWESOME JOB TT!! My boot2 install is working great!

Now, my question... Other than the NAND backup, what does the IOS BootMii really do for us?


Thanks!
=)

Its a platform to run MINI from.

"Mini Is Not IOS -- but it is a limited replacement that can fulfill many low-level tasks that IOS might interfere with. "

Alot of work is still going on making MINI usable for developers.

Not much for now, but the NAND backup itself is pretty useful as long as you can get back into HBC. Now, instead of having to install a fresh copy of 3.2, 4.0, etc. you can keep all of your hacks and everything with the NAND backup.

More will come soon, as Bootmii IOS allows MINI to run as an IOS.

It's primary function is to allow Wiis to run any Homebrew that uses MINI and its functions, or for running things with direct access to both the PPC and Starlet. I do not think there is anything right now that uses it though.

I used it because my Wii is pretty freaky (3.2j, tried region changing but disc didn't work) and bootmii is too unstable for me as boot2 or sys menu ios so I installed it nowhere near the boot process
