  • Where I get the Linux ?? Please tell me

  • @NewsikCZ I can't really remember where i got it cause i did this a year ago, but look around at wiibrew cause i think a link there brought me to it

  • what do you mean when you say you can't believe it worked? That the kernel booted on a Wii?! It doesn't surprise me that it could be done. The kernel itself is very versatile and doesn't require much in the way of hardware to boot, but the functionality is still pretty minimal unless you're able to build a nice OS around it. A lot of people have Linux on their cell phone, GPS, or MP3 player and don't even know it, TomTom & Archos are just a couple brands that use Linux!

  • as in i cant believe i got it to work.

    with my luck, i probably wouldnt have installed something right and nothing woulda happened.

  • Can you please tell me how? I have homebrew chann. Did u make the app ur self? Can I havez? lol plz?

  • i didn't make it myself, i was just showing that it is possible and it works.

    for all wii homebrew needs, go search WiiBrew on google

see all
