ok mate this is so simple on a 3.4
watch this utube video to install home brew channel and install bootmii on the same menu dont leave bootmii as it says in the video install all 3 divx homebrew channel and bootmii
then click prepare SD
YouTube - Wii 3.2 - 4.1 + 4.2 hack any region (easy)
files that the video uses
http://www.mediafire.com/?lke2tz0mfmn

then go into homebrew channel press home click bootmii and backup your NAND before going any further

MAKE SURE YOU SAVE THE NAND AND KEYS ON YOUR COMPUTER!! SAFE

YouTube - Wii Soft-mod step2

then after that you can use the safe install 4.2e from homebrew channel found here
Digital Kaos - Downloads - v4.2 safe firmware updater (http://www.digital-kaos.co.uk/forums/downloads/wii/16/v4-2-safe-firmware-updater-1037/)

then back up your nand again then follow these instructions
MAKE SURE YOU SAVE THE NAND AND KEYS AGAIN ON YOUR COMPUTER!! SAFE

format sd card again and extract modpack from the folder you downloaded earlier to sd card
run md5summer.exe and click verify sums and check theres no errors

now you need to install your wads.

Start HBC, press [HOME], Launch Bootmii
Multi-Mod Manager Starts (via cboot2)
Never Uninstall IOS, you will brick your wii
Select "WAD Manager" - Press A
Press (1) to "Install all Wads" - Press A
19 wads should install without issue
"Press any button to continue"
Be sure all the wads install, very important
If the wads fail to install, install 1 at a time
Press B two times- main menu

thats it nearly finished just need to install priiloader
You should now be at the main menu of Multi-Mod Manager
Select "App Manager" -press A
Select priiloader -press A
Read the warning- Press +/A to install -if needed Hold B press +/A to install with cIOS
After priiloader installs, it may freeze during restart- this is ok
Hold reset and boot wii while holding reset- priiloader will load
Select "System Menu Hacks"- Press A
Enable "Block Disk Updates", and "Block Online Updates", others if you like
If MMM loads at boot, select Manage Priiloader, Edit Priiloader Hacks, enable needed hacks.
If you don't know what the hack does- you don't need it.
Your wii should now block Disk updates and online updates



Note: Prilloader installer gives two errors-
/loader.ini couldn't delete error -106
/password.txt couldn't delete error -106
this is not a problem just carry on

thats it done

MODPACK FILES ARE HERE http://www.digital-kaos.co.uk/forums/downloads/wii/16/4-3-hack-files-1313/ (you only need the modpack rar)

just on the tutorial but stuck at this

7. Press down so Remove stubbed IOS is selected then press A. When asked to check for stub IOSs press A. A number of stub IOSs will be discovered. Press B for ?NO? for all IOS files except 222, 223, 249 and 250. Which you should press A to confirm deletion of. Press B for all other IOSs. When the discovery of stub IOS is complete you will be sent to the MMM menu. If you were not asked to remove 222,223,249 or 250 move to step 7.1. Otherwise to continue to step 8

i dont have those 222,223,249 or 250 anywhere

so i continued like it said but at this stage..

9. Press 1 to select all the wad files in the folder, then press A to continue.

If you get any install errors with the above wads, try step 7.1 above and then try again.


but it still says the same errors what should i do

I have this problem. I can't find ANY of those stubs. So I ignored it and tried to install the WADS as it says but they won't, I just get errors. Any idea why or where these stubs are?

The error is -2011

Thanks.

Do you have homebrew on your unit already?
If so look up a program called "pimp my wii", i havnt used it personally but I think it will do what you want.
