Wii - Via Homebrew Channel:
|
||
--------------------------------
|
||
The most popular method of running homebrew on the Wii is through the Homebrew
|
||
Channel. If you already have the channel installed, just copy over the apps folder
|
||
included in the archive into the root of your SD card.
|
||
|
||
Remember to also create the vbagx directory structure required. See above.
|
||
|
||
If you haven't installed the Homebrew Channel yet, read about how to here:
|
||
http://hbc.hackmii.com/
|
||
|
||
Gamecube:
|
||
--------------------------------
|
||
You can load VBAGX via sdload and an SD card in slot A, or by streaming
|
||
it to your Gamecube, or by booting a bootable DVD with VBAGX on it.
|
||
This document doesn't cover how to do any of that. A good source for information
