Preparing Wii for HB channel/Disk Dumper? - Toy Peace Maker - 04-23-2009

I have been playing around with Dolphin for a couple of months now, and i want to create iso dumps of my games (rather than download them) i know i need Homebrew channel, and "Disk Dumper"?

i want to use my wii to dump iso's to my computer, but i dont exactly know the procedure, i dont want to mess up and brick my console. if anyone can give me a detailed step by step i would help me out alot!Smile

well at least he's going for non-piracy Smile, so just point him to the right thread (i'm fairly new here so don't know where everything is Smile)

btw, Toy Peace Maker, you should go ahead and delete your pirated isos Big Grin

all you should do is
-Make sure you are using a firmware before 4.0
-get the Homebrew channel & install it
- get the channel to backup games

i have no exp in those steps but that should do it
also, i think its better if you had some stuff to change the wii's boot just in case you brick your wii

I read about a new exploit that even works on menu 4.0, called bannerbomb or something. Not released yet though.
