6)ok now install the homebrew channel
7)next install bootmii(as boot2 if possible)
8)next install bootmii ios

IF YOUR WII FREEZES HOLD DOWN THE POWER BUTTON THEN SWITCH BACK ON

12)copy this to the root of the sd card
13)rename boot.elf to boothackmii.elf
14)rename boot_wadmanager.dol to boot.dol

If you use the method that edogg posted here you shouldn't have any problems at all

OK I've managed to carry on with the orginal method I orginally never replaced the files from the sd2. done now and I'm up to number 60 but I'm stuck again...


61)start wad manager 1.5
62)select IOS249
63)if asked here select disable
64)choose wii sd slot
65)hilight neo gamma r7.wad and install it
66)hilight usb loader and install it
67)when done click home button on wiimote


Now from the original download you get wad manager 1.4 that does not work I get error ret 2011. So i've downloaded wad manager 1.5 but that just freezers any ideas where to go from here THANKS ...........

I've read on the forum to use iso 250 instead of 249 on the wad manager 1.5. Done this and it lets me load both the usb loader and neo gamma but still none of them work. Now its doing my head in will leave it till tomorrow but please give me some ideas.....

There are some more links on page 2 of the thread, are you selecting free user when trying to download?

the link to the Easy 4.2e hack does work i just tried it sometimes there are a lot of people down loading so rapidshare try and push you into a premium account just try again later
it has been downloaded 620 times and the servers are busy now so leave it for a bit
