WiiMU is a PoC "Channel Launcher" app for the Wii. It eventually aims to completely replace the System Menu in functionality. At the moment it is quite far from that goal, but it does have a start. It currently:

• Lists all installed Channels. (Does not include those with only a ticket)
• Allows selection of the Channel to load.
• Allows launching of a disc.
• Allows return to loader.
• Allows return to real System Menu.
• Has a NAND Dumper. Thanks to Redbird who released YaWnD, I was able to add this to the release. This is NOT my code, it is Redbirds.
• Allows you to look at all save files on your Wii. Copying does not work yet.
• Allows you to look at the configuration settings from your Wii.
• Has a Main menu. Contains Launch Disc, Launch a channel, dump NAND, return to Wii Menu, browse save files, look at configurations, and return to Loader.
• You can control the menus with every Wii Remote and every GameCube controller

Please note that at the moment it DOES NOT REPLACE ANY SYSTEM FILES! It may eventually get to that point, but currently it is far from it. Only stable versions will be released with source.

Usage

Load (using whatever method you feel like) and enjoy the textual goodness.

Running Through Homebrew Channel

You need to rename the .elf file and convert it to a .dol file (or valid .elf file) before it can run under HBC:

1. Download the archive from the link above and copy hbc.zip/WiiMU into an empty directory
2. Rename WiiMU.elf to boot.elf
3. Download Elf To Dol Converter Wii and copy the elf-dol_converter and powerpc-gekko-objcopy files into your empty directory
4. Run the elf-dol_converter script
5. Move your WiiMU directory under the "apps" directory on your SD card

Control
