Oct 5, 2008. 7:28 PMthe_burrito_master says:

I cant get the "boot.elf" file to copy to my sd card any suggestions.

Apr 25, 2009. 7:52 AMtunkymunky says:

did you use beta 7 or 8? if you used 8 where did you get the boot file from?

Apr 25, 2009. 9:30 AMthe_burrito_master says:

i was succesfull at getting it to run on my wii but after I thought there was no reason for me to have it I got rid of it and got a wii update that doesn't let me get it any more. i never new I could play backed up games off of dvd's until a few months ago.

Oct 5, 2008. 7:33 PMthe_burrito_master says:

ok formatting my card worked fine.

Apr 25, 2009. 8:09 AMtunkymunky says:

when i do it it says error could not be installed why is that?

Apr 25, 2009. 7:57 AMtunkymunky says:

if anyone has problems getting the boot file use this site and click on the link that spells out "WAD installer v2.1" if this crashes your wii i am not responsible

this is the site:

Apr 25, 2009. 7:59 AMtunkymunky says:

oh yeah use the file in the folder with the .elf extension

Jul 26, 2008. 7:13 AMmason0190 says:

Wii isn't optional it would be a big choice for a $250 piece of hardware

Aug 15, 2008. 1:39 AMbtop (author) says:

You cant really harm your wii doing this. But i suppose there is always the chance.

Apr 25, 2009. 7:48 AMtunkymunky says:

isnt the only bad thing this brings a voided warranty?

Mar 22, 2009. 6:59 AMNeelios says:

Thanks for this. Works perfectly

Feb 26, 2009. 1:40 PMBridel568 says:

does this ruin your wii???

Mar 5, 2009. 11:11 PMSolderguy says:

It doesn't ruin your wii but it can "brick" it. (or render it as useful as a brick).

Feb 25, 2009. 3:25 PMaznnotorious says:

after i extract the file called "the_homebrew_channel-beta_8.ISO". is only has wiiload folder and installer in ISO but i can't find BOOT.ELF FILE ANYWHERE. PLEASE HELP ME OUT.. THANKS...

Feb 12, 2009. 6:18 PMSolderguy says:

You spelled "incorrectly" wrong in step 5, "....because of the incorecly structured data...."

Feb 5, 2009. 7:11 AMteevee1970 says:

i updated my firmware to 3.3U now all make download games read error 324. should i downgrade back 3.2U ? anyones' input will be greatly appreciated..

Nov 15, 2008. 8:20 AMraykholo says:

i have a 2gb micro sd card with a normal sd adapter -- will that work? also--- do i have to actually buy the zelda game?

Jan 19, 2009. 12:44 PMsoccerskyman says:

You do need the zelda game. I know that for sure. As for the micro SD card, as long as you have the adapter then yes. it should work. as long as it can hold data.

Dec 22, 2008. 7:52 PMCartuner55 says:

yes. it will work. about the zelda game. its a glitch in the game. the savegame makes a horse (in the game) have a name so long that the game cant handle it. then it somehow installs homebrew channel.go to step 5 to read how it does. so yes you do need the game.

Jan 18, 2009. 6:10 AMsoccerskyman says:

I will still be able to use my zelda game after I inatall the homebrew channle right?

Nov 27, 2008. 12:23 PMskoolkid#69 says:

what entirly does the home brew channel do

Nov 15, 2008. 9:32 PMconradev says:

You Can't Challenge My Instructable Here. It was on the front page along with my other instructable.

P.S. Funny little note in Bold Italic on the intro. That basically makes fun of my instructable on how to play Backups on any wii without a modchip.

P.S.S. Srry for being mean becuz i love the Rapid fire mod

Nov 13, 2008. 8:20 PMalex-sharetskiy says:

Cool! i like the fact that the Wii is optional...

Nov 1, 2008. 5:32 PMlikewhoami says:

Thanks got the homebrew channel onto my wii Thanks sooooo much

Sep 7, 2008. 4:10 AMCooshinator says:

For everyone that says iys dangerous: first of all youre just installing a new channel. you cant really get bricked for that. second, you dont need to deactivate wifi, but if u want to be supa safe, then cancel the licence agreement.

Sep 24, 2008. 5:38 PMhumongo_spork says:

I know I'm being stupid, but once you cancle the licence agreement can you reactivate it?

Oct 11, 2008. 7:29 AMCooshinator says:

ya u can. but while its canceled, u pretty much cant use any special internet features like wiimail or shop channel

Oct 5, 2008. 7:18 PMthe_burrito_master says:

AWESOME!!!... I'm gonna have a lot of fun with this >:)

Sep 24, 2008. 5:39 PMhumongo_spork says:

will this get you banned from wifi? or get it bricked?

Jun 28, 2008. 6:37 AMhumongo_spork says:

your LoZ:TP version is PAL, not NTSC or what ever, so will this work with a NTSC formatted game?

Jul 4, 2008. 10:34 PMLyoko is Cool says:

I'm confused by your question. Do you mean will the Twilight Hack work on NTSC formatted games? If so, yes, the twilight hack works with all versions of the game. You do, however need to select the right hack file. From the instructable: Region Inner circle text File (This is the text on the inner ring on the data side (bottom) of the disc) The file list is in thjis format: | Region | String to match | File to use | Europe/Australia RVL-RZDP-0A-0 JPN rzdp0.bin Asia RVL-RZDJ-0A-0 JPN rzdj0.bin America RVL-RZDE-0A-0 JPN rzde0.bin America RVL-RZDE-0A-0 USA rzde0.bin America RVL-RZDE-0A-2 USA rzde2.bin

can you fix the twilight princess game?

Aug 23, 2008. 10:02 AMM1 Monty says:

So should I disconnect my Wii from the internet so that Big Japanese Brother (Nintendo) won't see what I'm doing?

Aug 21, 2008. 7:03 AMconradev says:

just so you know the homebrew channel is on beta 8 so you can change this on step 2

Jul 10, 2008. 9:59 AMJellyWoo says:

where do you come from? i thought twighlight princess was rated teen not 12+?

Aug 19, 2008. 11:53 AMsteed1172 says:

12+ it's almost the same thing as teen(13+)

Jun 2, 2008. 3:28 PMaliceownsj00 says:

So what does all this do? Whats the purpose of doing this?

Jun 2, 2008. 5:36 PMJakeTobak says:

It let's you run homebrew, which lets you do all sorts of kewl things. You can play games from other regions, doesn't work with the Homebrew Channel at the moment, and play homebrew games. XBox let you do some cool things like installing Linux so it can be a server and have a better media player. At some point you can probably play illegal stuff and maybe installing some sort of custom firmware, it's hard to say right now.
