Homebrew Channel and BootMii Installation

{% include toc title="Table of Contents" %}

The Homebrew Channel is where you will go to launch homebrew applications. BootMii is a piece of software that can backup and restore your Wii's NAND storage, and if installed in boot2, provides brick protection.

BootMii can be installed in two ways: directly to a part of the Wii bootloader called boot2, and via an IOS. BootMii under boot2 is preferred as it provides extended brick protection, but Wiis with a vulnerable boot1 that allows this installation are considerably rarer, having been manufactured before 2009. In most cases, installing BootMii as IOS should be fine, as long as you also install Priiloader. {: .notice--info}

If you do not have an SD card, you cannot install nor use BootMii, and therefore will not be able to utilize any of the mentioned benefits.
You can always install it at a later date. {: .notice--warning}

Instructions

  1. Your console should be powered on and showing the HackMii Installer from the previous part of the guide.

    • You will see a scam warning screen.

  2. Wait 30 seconds for the text "Press 1 to continue" to appear, then press 1.

  3. Select Exit to finally open the Homebrew Channel.

  4. Select Install the Homebrew Channel.

  5. Once done, select Continue.

  6. Once installed, select Back, then select BootMii.

  7. Select Install BootMii as IOS.

  8. Select Continue when finished.

  9. If you couldn't install BootMii, continue to installing Priiloader.

  10. If BootMii says that it can only be installed as an IOS, that's normal.

  11. Your console will have booted into the Homebrew Channel.

Required Reading

You can now use the Homebrew Channel to launch homebrew apps.

Here's a tip - when installing homebrew applications on your SD Card or USB drive, your folder structure should look like this:

💾 SD Card or USB Drive
| ╸📁 apps
    | ╸📁 AppName1
        | ╸📄 boot.dol
        | ╸📄 meta.xml
        | ╸📄 icon.png
    | ╸📁 AppName2
        | ╸📄 boot.dol
        | ╸📄 meta.xml
        | ╸📄 icon.png

AppName1 and AppName2 are placeholder names. Do not nest multiple apps folders inside the apps folder itself.

Continue to making a NAND Backup using BootMii
Making a NAND backup with BootMii at this point is highly recommended. {: .notice--info}

Tip: You can tell if a Wii has BootMii installed as boot2 if your disc drive flashes very briefly, only after the immediate flash that happens when you press the POWER Button. {: .notice--info}
