Read everything carefully and you won't have any problems. If you do have a problem don't panic and ask before you do anything you are not sure about.

read all, and take somtime to do.
finally run all ok,

i did on mine Wii and runs good

Really is quite easy to do, especially now since the letterbomb has been developed to hack 4.3 without any of the games (indiana jones, smash bros brawl, etc)
To do, or not to do, that is the question......the answer is yes, and use a good usb loader with a hard drive rather than disks

Well if you don't want to buy or borrow the original games discs then as mentioned use LetterBonb but don't forget that will only install the Homebrew channel, BootMii and prepare the SD card for backing up your NAND.

The first job after installing HBC is backup your NAND with BootMii just in case you brick it.

Second job is put PriiLoader 0.7 on the SD card and install that through HBC then you can block any updates from Nintendo or game discs, plus you can do other tweaks with PriiLoader?

Then read up on the tweaks for installing USB Loaders so you can play downloaded games. There are 4 or 5 different USB Loaders that you can run through HBC. Each one has different ways of working and with different functions. When you find the one you like you can have you're own channel on the Wii menu which saves time.
