HackMii Installer v0.8 Released

It's been less than a month and the HackMii Team have already pushed out another update to the HackMii Installer! With this release, there have been a few bug-fixes, and the HomeBrew Channel now has support for USB2 through the new IOS58, which is installed with System Menu 4.3. (If you do not want to update, please use Tantric's IOS58 Installer, included in the attachments section below).

Here's the developer's note for this release:

Some of you may be familiar with a major problem in Wii homebrew land. Most applications and games found on wiibrew.org use libogc, which in turn relies on IOS. While most IOS versions have a USB module, it is limited to USB1, and its I/O throughput make some applications next to unusable when using USB mass storage devices, others have annoyingly long loading times.

The Wii game “Your Shape” changed this – it introduced a new IOS version: 58, and this is the first with an official USB2 module. Starting with the System Menu 4.3 update, IOS58 is available to every Wii.

Thanks to some serious work by tueidj, all homebrew applications can now utilize this USB2 module through libogc. The Homebrew Channel v1.0.8 is the first version supporting it.

IOS58 will be automatically installed when you update your Wii to System Menu 4.3. If you do not want to update, you can use Tantric’s clean IOS58 Installer.

There have been a few changes with this release, most notably the added support for USB2 in the HomeBrew Channel. Also, if any BootMii users experienced problems autobooting to the System Menu, these problems should now be fixed! For more information on the recent changes please view the changelog below.

Changelog:

HackMii Installer (v0.8):

• IOS58 is chosen for The Homebrew Channel when installed. This is required for USB2 support. Other IOS versions are of course still supported, but USB will be limited to version 1.

BootMii beta 6 (v1.3):

• Fixed the freeze when using the autoboot feature to load System Menu with a delay of zero.
• The NAND backup no longer crashes when stumbling on uncorrectable pages.
• A couple of fixes to the integrated SD browser.
• The autoboot feature is ignored when launching the IOS version of BootMii.

The Homebrew Channel (v1.0.8):

• General USB improvements for all IOS versions, this fixes the regression introduced in version 1.0.7.
• USB2 support through IOS58.

NOTE: When the HackMii Installer v0.7 was released, the HackMii Team announced that there was a hidden surprise in the release. The "surprise" was revealed a while ago.
