nand dumping question

Okay so I while ago i transferred all my Wii save and purchases to the wii u. I still have my original wii with gamecube support(this is how i dumped the GC game and saves) but usually use the wii u for wii game. So of course the wiiu virtual wii mode is setup for homebrew(wii u is also setup for wiiu which I did a full nand dump earlier). Is there any issue with using the virtual wii nand over the original wii? I don't know if there is except maybe GC support in the wiiu virtual wii nand which shouldn't affect things. I aware that likely will have to use the virtual wii for the dump.

Dolphin isn't able to run the vWii version of the Wii Menu, but most other things (like your games and saves) should work fine.

I'm not sure if I understand. Could you rephrase?

The gamecube bios thing oh well. As for the second can I use the wii menu but the vwii game/save or is it lock to the nand. Is there anyway to get the gc bios from the wii. I don't have anyway with my gc. So can't get hackmii to install (say not compatible). I couldn't get savegame manager gx to copy the protect save, however savemii mod will copy all of the wii save and it will show up in savegame manager in vwii homebrew, but I can't figure out how to get the save to work in dolphin.
