Backup functionality doesn't work on a SD Card that was working fine before June 22, 2009 09:08PM | Registered: 14 years ago Posts: 2 |
Hello,
I already backed up the NAND to a 1 GB SDHC card, using both BootMii beta 1 and BootMii Beta 2. BootMii installed successfully as boot 2 because whenever I inserted the SD card, I could see the BootMii menu.
Now, I wanted to upgrade some of the homebrew applications and decided to make a backup on that same card, just to be safe. After starting the backup, I got an error ... Therefore, I formatted the card, reinstalled BootMii as boot 2 on the same card and tried the backup option once again. This time around, the Wii is stuck and NO BLOCK is copied. Moreover, whenever I try to start the Wii with the BootMii SD Card, I go directly to the system menu and I can only access the BootMii menu by going on the HBC and selecting the BootMii option after pressing the home button.
Is my SD card the problem ? I mean ... I could see this being a compatibility issue, but the same card was working fine like 2 weeks ago, using the latest version of BootMii.
Any help or comment is appreciated!
Sincerely,
Robert.

Well, I had a similar problem to yours: i couldn't backup my wii nand into my 2gb sd (sometimes it created a "nand.bin" file but it size was 0kb, others none at all)..
I reformatted my sd a lot of times (as fat32), but the same issue happened.
finally, i tried reformatting it as fat16, and well, my problem is now past!
as i can see that after you formatted your card it started giving you this headache, maybe you should try this.
btw, i've installed the latest version of bootmii as boot2 (same as you) and i suggest you to have a backup "trigger card" for bootmii (in fact i've three - just prepare another one with bootmii folder), it could save you in times like this.
hope this help you..
