This tutorial will tell you how to install Leseratte's d2xl Wii mini cIOS (custom IOS). This is required if you want to load games with a USB Loader. Some homebrew might work better using cIOS.

If you have a Wii, Install [this cIOS](cios) instead. Attempting to install this cIOS on a Wii may **brick your console!!**
