The long awaited release of BootMii is finally upon us. A public beta is now available from the official site linked above.
Due to architectural limitations, BootMii cannot access the WiiMote. Use a GC controller or the Power/Reset buttons.

BootMii is a piece of software that can be installed as an IOS or inserted into the boot process. As an IOS, it provides a fast way to back up your Wii's internal NAND flash memory, and will eventually form the basis of a new generation of homebrew applications for the Wii. Inserted into the boot process, BootMii provides you with a "safety net" -- you can back up your entire Wii to SD in under three minutes! If you were to brick your Wii, BootMii would still run and let you restore your backup from SD, quickly and painlessly. BootMii also allows you to directly boot the Homebrew channel or other homebrew from SD, bypassing the "warning screen" and the rest of the menu.
Comex has released an alpha build of the "Bannerbomb" exploit for testing.
Go to the official site HERE if you would like to help test it.

compatible (in theory) with 3.x-4.0
1. Get a SD card. If it has a private directory, rename it temporarily, e.g. to "privateold". Having other saved channels on the same card will screw it up.
2. Download aad1f_v102.zip and unzip it onto the SD card.
3. Get a DOL or ELF and put it on the SD as /boot.dol or /boot.elf.
4. Press (Wii), Data Management, Channels, SD. Then insert the card. It should either pop up Load /boot.dol? or freeze.
5. If it pops up a dialog, then fill out the survey.
6. If it freezes, follow these diagnostics:
* Did you use the SD menu (4.0) or click Savedata instead of Channels? If so, then you're dumb
* Otherwise, try a different version. The system menu is somewhat unpredictable; while most people should be able to use version i don't know yet, some might need another version.
xiaNaix from Wiinewz.com has posted new information about the new Nintendo Wii System Update 4.0
Nintendo has released System Menu 4.0, which includes a batch of IOS updates. Updating is not recommended at this point!

The announcement lists these changes:
* Virtual Console/WiiWare titles can be launched directly from a SD card.
* SDHC support, up to 32GB
* ...
The update includes a batch of IOS updates issued a few hours before the System Menu update.
According to Wiibrew, the update is confirmed to kill The Homebrew Channel (new install AND already installed), DVDx, and likely the Twilight hack as well. Some users are reporting that HBC still boots from the new "SD Channel" added by the firmware but some apps will not launch from it. We strongly recommend not updating until more information is available.
UPDATE #1: It has been CONFIRMED that the Twilight hack can no longer be copied from SD card. If you do not have already have it installed, you will not be able to run it after updating to 4.0 It may also be impossible to install other apps after the update so, again, DO NOT UPDATE UNTIL MORE INFORMATION IS AVAILABLE.
UPDATE #2: Previous installed of The Homebrew Channel and DVDx seem to... [Read More]
