## SD Preparations

This page will guide you through the process of modding your vWii.

We will now start by placing the required Homebrew files on the SD Card.

?> **Notice**
Your SD Card will need to be formatted as FAT32. If your SD Card is not formatted to FAT32, use [GUIFormat](http://ridgecrop.co.uk/index.htm?guiformat.htm) with 32k (32768) Allocation unit size to format it. **Do not** label the SD Card as `wiiu` or it will cause issues with homebrew.

?> If you have hacked your Wii U in the past, you can use the same SD Card for this process.

### What You Need

- The latest files from [Tiramisu for your café](https://tiramisu.foryour.cafe).
  - Click on `Download Tiramisu`.
  - If you have already installed Tiramisu, you do not need to redownload it.
- The latest release of the [Compat Title Installer](https://hb-app.store/wiiu/CompatTitleInstaller).
- The <a href="docs/files/Patched_IOS80_Installer_for_vWii.zip" download>Patched IOS 80 Installer for vWii</a>. ([Source](https://github.com/Lazr1026/Patched-IOS80-Installer-for-vWii))
