Okay, I attempted to load it twice using Smash Stack, and both times, it boots, but stops as soon as it gets to "Valid ELF image detected" and stops, which is followed by the Wii's disk slot flashing.

The files on the SD Card are as follows.

boot.elf

and

private/ wii/ app/ resbe/ st/ st-080805_0933

It does nothing after the fact, it just freezes. Why?

Also, I have System Menu 4.2U.

I have also tried Bannerbomb, but it is impossible due to the fact the machien I am using is not a Windows (G4 Apple computer).

I am at the end of my patience, I have tried for most of the day to figure it out with help from others, but I am now at my wit's end.

Please help me?

Redownload Gecko and put the boot.elf file on the root of your SD card.

I'm just gonna double post in response, You don't run Gecko on your computer. You run it from the wii. Google Gecko OS 1.9.1 and download that. In the download package should be the boot.elf you need.

Wait, so there are two "boot.elf"s? I think I might just decide to copy a Boot.Elf from the Balanced Brawl pack I Dled not too long ago.

No. You're only supposed to have one boot.elf and its supposed to be Gecko OS. There aren't supposed to be any others.

Well, the Wii finally took it via the Stack Smash method, and now the HBC is installed...but is BootMii a requirement to run it or no?
