The operating system Whiite is a custom distribution for the Nintendo Wii, created by the gc-linux team and built on top of Debian Lenny 5.0. ==Installation== To run Linux on the Wii, it is necessary to install [[Homebrew Channel Wii|The Homebrew Channel]] (HBC). To install HBC, the Wii requires a 2GB or smaller SD card, a USB keyboard, and an internet connection. You must check the System Menu Version, MAC Address, and Internet connection before starting the installation. You must visit the website "please.hackmii.com" and download the Homebrew Channel files, extract them to the SD card, and install the channel through the LetterBomb option in the Wii messages. After installation, you will have to download the Whiite software, prepare the SD card, and partition it. [http://www.gc-linux.org/wiki/WL:whiite-linux-installer This article] provides the links to download the Whiite software and the steps to partition the SD card. Here is a quick SD card installation overview: * Get a SD card of at least 512 MB. * Create a FAT16 filesystem on the first partition of your SD card. * Create a ext3 filesytem as larger as possible (of at least 300 MB) on the second partition of your SD card. * Untar the contents of the package gc-linux-mikep4-v2.6.31+whiite-1.10.tar.bz2 to the root directory of the FAT16 filesystem. * Untar the contents of the package debian-lenny-5.0+whiite-1.10.tar.bz2 to the root directory of the ext3 filesystem. * Boot the "whiite 1.10 (mikep4)" application from the Homebrew Channel or boot the /bootmii/mikep4.elf file from BootMii GUI SD Explorer. ==Media== '''Linux on a Wii? - Wii Linux Installation and Testing (Xorg/Whiite) 2020''' ([https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AQUGajhvOhQ DerNuntius])<br> <youtube>AQUGajhvOhQ</youtube> '''Wii running Linux (better quality)''' ([https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1oPdRIagtFE bertjanwii])<br> <youtube>1oPdRIagtFE</youtube> ==Credits== The usual suspects: * Team Twiizers * The wiibrew.org community * The libogc team Unusual suspects: * Maarten ter Huurne for helping in getting the IOS-based USB HCD (rvl-sthcd) out * gc-linux.org's hopeful random irc visitors and idlers Special thanks go to the Debian project contributors. ==External Links== * GC-Linux - http://www.gc-linux.org/wiki/WL:whiite-linux-installer * Linux - https://www.linux.org/threads/linux-on-the-wii.10675/ * WiiBrew - https://wiibrew.org/wiki/Wii-Linux/Distros#Whiite * SourceForge - https://sourceforge.net/projects/gc-linux/
