|
|
|
|

|

|
|
|
|
#### Section II - Installing the Homebrew Channel

|
|

|
|
3. Launch vWii (the Wii Menu icon).
|
|
- If the installation has succeeded, you should see the Homebrew Channel in your Wii Menu.
|
|
|
|
You may delete the `wiiu` folder on your SD card if you so choose.
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Required Reading
|
|
|
|
You can now use the Homebrew Channel to launch Wii homebrew apps.
|
|
|
|
Note: When installing homebrew applications on your SD Card or USB drive, your folder structure should look like this:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
💾 SD Card
|
|
┗ 📁 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.
|
|
Do not Get confused with the `apps` folder inside of the `wiiu` folder and the `apps` folder on the root of the SD card.
