How To Back up Discs Using the DVD->SD utility tool found on the Wiikey Setup disc v1.0:

Here?s step by step tutorial for all the newbs that are utterly lost. Some of this material if not all should be self explanatory, but im going through it so that any one can follow.

Shopping List
-Wiikey Disc util (can be found at nintendo-scene)
-Image Writing program such as nero or img burn
-SD Gecko (or Internal SD Gecko hack)
-SD card (preferably 2gb+)
-Couple Blank dvds

Directions
Im starting off assuming you have your wii set up with a wiikey to play imports and backups and all those homebrew goodies. I don?t know if this will work with other chips. Try it, let me know, and edit this later.
1. Burn a disc of the 1.3 set up disc. I heard 1.2 also has the goods but I wouldn?t know.
2. Install to your computer wiikey disc utility. It auto installs to C:WiiKeyUtilities but you can move it if you like.
3. Open up the program once its installed and plug in your sd card to your computer.
4. Select the 3rd tab ?Disc Backup? and choose the drive letter and then format your sd card. If you don?t do this step it will not work! It also takes 5-10 min as it says so go grab a drink rite now.
5. Take your 1.3 set up disc and your gecko adapter and sd card and put them all into the wii. Select disc back up.
6. The program and your wii will take care of filling up your card. Once its filled take it back to your computer and plug it back in
7. Open the wiikey util disc again and in the 3rd tab choose dump sd data. Do this until you have done the last chunk.
8. When you?re done the saved iso will be in the iso folder. Before you are done the iso will be in the wiikey utilities folder.
9. Burn
10. Enjoy

1gb sd -> 5 dumps/chunks
2gb sd -> 3 dumps/chunks
4gb sd -> 2 dumps/chunks
8gb sd -> 1 dump/chunk

If you got questions or other things to mention, post it up and some one will see it. This is my first tut, hope it helps. I take no responsibility what you do with this.

Props to emu_kid and everyone at the_skeen and nindento-scene for all their hard work
