Payload-Loader Installer

A (hopefully) userfriendly and safe installer to inject a "payload.elf-loader" into the Health and Safety application via FailST.

To be able to do a coldboot setup you need launch this installer via the Health & Safety injection itself.

Use the installer to uninstall the Payload-Loader, even a factory won't remove it

There is always the risk of bricking the console, only proceed with installing if you understand this risk

Features

  • Inject PayloadFromRPX into the Health & Safety application.
  • Change the boot-title of the console to Health & Safety to coldboot into PayloadFromRPX.
  • Various (hash)-checks to make sure the installation will be successful.
  • Restore the original Health & Safety Application.

Usage

Load the Installer with the PayloadLoaderInstallerEnvironment or homebrew_on_menu_plugin.

  • Coldbooting into the Payload-Loader can only be activated if you launch the installer from an environment that has been loaded by the Payload-Loader. This ensures the Payload-Loader is actually working properly before coldbooting into it.
  • Launching the Payload-Loader Installer from the browser won't let change the boot title to Payload-Loader.
  • The PayloadFromRPX can only be updated when coldbooting into the Wii U Menu.
  • Coldbooting can only be activated when the installer recognizes the PayloadFromRPX.
  • The installer is only designed to work with a unmodifed system. If your have modified the Health & Safety Application or system.xml in the past the installer may fail

Building using the Dockerfile

It's possible to use a docker image for building. This way you don't need anything installed on your host system.

# Build docker image (only needed once)
docker build . -t payloadloaderinstaller-builder

# make 
docker run -it --rm -v ${PWD}:/project payloadloaderinstaller-builder make

# make clean
docker run -it --rm -v ${PWD}:/project payloadloaderinstaller-builder make clean
