While I have not been doing this anywhere near as long as he has and dont mind answering these questions, he is right about what he said. Worked like a charm all 4 times.Īll these guides were created by the same guy giving you crap for asking the questions you could have found the answers to yourself. Two with mod chips and two were virgin unmodded wii's. I have done all this on 4 different wii's now. Or you will always have the nand backup created by bootmii. These guides will install pre-loader on your wii where you can turn off disc updates which helps prevent against future updates from bricking your wii. Then when that is done, install the USB loader stuff if you want and you will be good to go to play backups off of disc or off a portable hard drive, and you will also be able to install Vistual Console games and wii ware. After installing bootmii make a nand backup, and then go ahead and follow the steps in the guide for loading backups from the disc channel. The guide actually recommends it, and links you to instructions for using and installing bootmii. When that is done, go to the launch disc from the backup channel guide and install bootmii before you follow the steps in that guide. Follow all the steps and yes it's ok on a 4.1e FW Wii. In short start off with the new and improved wii softmod quide. Yes you can still use the news and weather channels, and you can also play the backup games online. Bootmii is the backup to the wii system you asked about. I recommend doing all those steps as well.
The guide for loading backups from the disc channel contains some information on bootmii and how to install and use it. I also recommend following the guides linked at the bottom that tell you how to load backup games from the disc channel. Yes you should follow all the steps in the guide. Yes you can use the softmod guide if you are on 4.1e Yes you can play wii ware if you do the softmod guide.
