so i've been reading around for hours on end,
but i dont know what info is right on softmodding.
so many people say different things about it.
some things i wanna know are:
if i get homebrew channel succesfully installed is there a chance it could brick in the future.
and by bricking in the future i just intend on playing backups after i install homebrew and backup launcher. i dont intend on downloading banners or anything just playing backups from the usa on my usa wii.
so is there any risk of it bricking in the future even though all i will do after installing homebrew is play a backup?
and another thing is if i update my wii after i install homebrew will it brick or remove the homebrew channel?
please i need some help on this.
im urging daily to go and just soft mod it, but i dont wanna brick my wii.

Follow the new and improved Wii softmod guide and you will be fine. I have used it 4 times on wii's with and without mod chips and it works great.

Follow all the instructions to the letter. When you are done with that guide, use the link at the bottom and complete the guide called How to load backups from the disc channel. At the top of this guide are instructions for installing and running Bootmii. Bootmii will make a backup of your Wii in the event a future updates bricks the wii.

WHen you are done installing bootmii, and making your wii backup, (need 500mb free space on your sd card to backup the wii), follow the instructions for loading backup games from the disc channel.

When you are done with that guide you are good to go.

Yes it is ok to update to the latest Firmware 4.1 before starting the softmod guide. Just follow the steps and trust the instructions.
