Hi guys.
my wii is modded with the wiikey and was wondering if there was any way to install the homebrew channel besides using the twilight hack. i was reading the wiibrew wiki page and i worked out that i would have to have firmware below 3.3 (i have 3.2E) to install via dvd but there are no such guides etc.
if anybody could help me out i would appreciate it very much,
regards,
Mubs

If you have a Wiikey and 3.2E firmware then you can install The Homebrew Channel via an ISO.

Go HERE and download the "the_homebrew_channel-beta_8-iso-EUR.tar.gz" under the ".ISO (Selfbooting disc image for people with drivechips)" section.

Extract the file and burn the installer.iso to a blank DVD. Now insert it into your Wii and launch it via Disc Channel and follow the instructions to install The Homebrew Channel.

It is that simple.

After you install it you might want to launch the Homebrew Channel and update it to the latest version which is beta 9. You can update it by selecting the icon in the bottom right hand corner of the menu.

If there is a Beta 10 it must have been just released. Either way when doing the update via The Homebrew Channel it should update to latest version.
