the homebrew channel is one of the very first thing you will install

[ck-ok]

So does the preloader enable you to take a copy of it? I see the link no longer works either.
What is the likelihood of running this MMM app without having to take a copy of the wii memory?
Thanks guys.

If you can direct me also to an idiots guide, that would be ideal as the last thing I want to do is do this and then ruin the Wii. Is that possible?
THank you

sorry iv'e not realised the 4.2 tut had been updated to mmm.iv'e not used it since its been updated but the chance of anything going wrong is very small dont worry about it

try rebooting then click the sd card icon then inserting the card

[stucatz]

done that, and it basically shows that there are no files on the SD card. but yet when i check on pc, everything is on there. folders & files. Also formatted to FAT32

have you got a boot.elf file on the root of the sd card?

Hey CK, I'm away from the unit now but I'm pretty certain that it is. I basically
Copied all the files onto the SD card. Tho some are in their folders. When you look
At the card on a pc there are folders and also some files. I guess the root means
Furthest level up.

Any way you might be able to do me a msn or live support? If not we'll just msg each other
Via this format. Thanks fella.

root of the sd card means not inside any folder,

Hi matey. Well I'm pretty certain I tried that before but can try again.
What files should be on the sd card? Also should there be no folders on the card?
Also re the mmm app, do I just put the files from that folder on there, or do I put all
Of them on there? Thanks.

there should be files and folders and put them all on,if you keep gettin probs just follow the old tut

[stucatz]

Ok so do I copy all files from each folder to root or can I keep folder formats?
Also do I need to download or install HB channel first before doing any of this?
I just can't understand as to why the wii sd card menu shows that there are no files on card?
Am I missing something? Just thought, do I need to install HB channel first in order to run
Sd card files as I don't have it on there?
If so where do I d/l it and how's it installed?
Thanks again ck

keep all the files exactly as you copied them over,no need for hb to read sd card,what sort of card are you using?

[stucatz]

Hi there. I'm using a Sandisk 2gb card.
Also you say no need for hb to read sd card, its the wii that won't read the sd card.
