NOTICE

This homebrew application makes permanent changes to the Wii's NAND, thus, this application should be used with caution.

It is recommended to have a NAND backup with either BootMii as boot2 or Priiloader with BootMii as IOS installed before proceeding with the usage of this application.

Purpose

Launch Gamecube homebrew on Wii. Ensure that you read the documentation and understand what you are doing before using. This program modifies the MIOS and therefore can be dangerous.

Background Information

DOL loader is patched into MIOS. If Wii switches to Gamecube mode, the DOL loader is always started. The loader will start Gamecube homebrew if loaded by GCBooterHomebrew. The loader launches the normal GC loader if no homebrew is detected. This behaviour can be disabled by reinstalling a normal MIOS via DOP-Mii.

Installation Steps

Copy RVL-mios-v5.wad.out.wad to root of SD card (This file is not included in the archive but is located on the Super Mario Galaxy (EU) disc, Mario Kart (EU), Super Smash Bros. Brawl (EU) and possibly other discs. It can also be downloaded using NUSD. Use a different version at your own risk. The MIOS patching wad installer will only allow to install MIOS. This can only break the GC mode. Loader should not patch any starlet code.)
Patch MIOS using MIOSPatchingWADInstaller.
