Re: Semi bricked 4.3u Wii and using bootmii boot2 as elf loader - 13 years ago
Sorry for the delay, wiibrew must have been down. anyway, i made a folder called nandformatter and in it, i put the non formatting build, and a folder named WAD. The wad folder contains all 5 wads. i booted up the elf and the screen says ohai, world! and thats it. im leaving my wii on until i get a response just as a precaution, are the wads installing?by cre8ive65 - Getting Started

How do i boot the Comex elf via bootmii? do i go to the sd icon and navigate to the elf and select it? ive tried that with other files and they dont work, then again, the elf files i tried, run on IOS and not MINI. Also, ive got the nand dump, what do i use to extract the gamesaves,? and if i format the nand, and install the wad files, will i still be able to download the games i bought on the wiby cre8ive65 - Getting Started

Re: Semi bricked 4.3u Wii and using bootmii boot2 as elf loader - 13 years ago
Cool thanks! when i originally did a nand backup, it came up with 4 bad blocks, the nand backup im doing rite now however, has 4 bad blocks, and about 6 uncorrectable pages (i didnt really count the uncorrectable pages, just a guess, However im sure i have 4 bad blocks) what exactly does that mean?by cre8ive65 - Getting Started
Re: Semi bricked 4.3u Wii and using bootmii boot2 as elf loader - 13 years ago
Again, thank you so much for these tips, my wii disc drive is about as old as they get, i think my wii came with system menu 3.0u preinstalled when i got it, so all homebrew should work, however, i tried installing wiimc and the dvd wouldnt play, and i belive it said i needed ios222 to play dvds, thats the whole reason i followed that guide in the first place, or maybe the ios222 was for usbloadeby cre8ive65 - Getting Started

Re: Semi bricked 4.3u Wii and using bootmii boot2 as elf loader - 13 years ago

So, just to be clear, i only need to install IOS36, and the system menu via the comex wad thingy?

Semi bricked 4.3u Wii and using bootmii boot2 as elf loader - 13 years ago
I bought my wii 3 months after it was released. I just recently installed some homebrew on my 4.3u wii, just bootmii as IOS and the homebrew channel, so nothing special. Later i decided to use my wii as a dvd player, so i followed this guide, but i didn't downgrade to 4.1 because the guide has changed since I installed, but i have the same wads installed (Not illegal wads, just ios's anby cre8ive65 - Getting Started
