Just thought I'd post a warning here, since many rely on their homebrew enabled wii for dumping games.

http://hackmii.com/2009/09/wii-menu-4-2-a-lack-of-imagination/

The update brings nothing new to your wii, it's simply a homebrew killer. It will check for and delete you homebrew channel and DVDX at every bootup.

Note that there's still exploits left, (Smash Stack & Indiana Pwns) so once team twiizers release a new version of homebrew channel and DVDX, they can be reinstalled without getting deleted at bootup. (they just have to change their title ID, you can even hex the channels yourself)

BUT the update also updates boot2, meaning no more bootmii in boot2, unless they find another exploit of course.

The update is needed to use the shop channel, but you can use wiiSCU to update it without getting the Wii Menu 4.2 update.

* DacoTaco facepalms


and nowhere it says even none homebrew wii's can be fucked

they update the boot2 and apparently didn't check the boot2 content before finishing the update. which leaves a nice opening for wii's to brick since boot2 content are pooped


for those who can't follow:
something inside your wii is fucked. its like a faulty flashing a bios

The new hackmii installer is out, their homebrew killer didn't last long...

http://hackmii.com/2009/09/silly_games/

I'm not quite sure if bootmii boot2 will work still, but seems so from this statement:

HackMii installer (v0.5):

* New exploit to enable (un-)installation of all components on fully updated Wiis.


If not, you can still install it as ios, and rewrite your NAND with one from before the update, so you've just lost the security of having bootmii in boot2.

EDIT: Seems bootmii as boot2 uses an exploit in boot1 to install, so it can always be installed no matte what Nintendo doBig Grin

Yeah homebrew was fixed shortly after so wii menu 4.2 is no big deal (except for the very low risk of the bootloader update killing your wii)
I was wondering too why this remained stickied...
