| BootMii as boot2 gives a ''LONG'' startup before showing the system menu. BootMii as IOS works as intended and a NAND backup takes 2-3 minutes, and verifying it takes 3-5 minutes. Sometimes, BootMii fails to boot the Wii completely and forces me to force power down the system.

 +
|
 +
| Doesn't appear to launch into bootmii directly (bootmii was installed via IOS), but HBC loads it just fine. <s>Unclear whether NAND backup can work at all with this card; it decided I didn't have enough space when there was 5 GB free.</s> A format fixed the space detection. Before, it was reading 435MB no matter the actual space, but after it was cleared, the space seemed fairly accurate and the backup/check took about 10 minutes.

Tests

BootMii Public Beta 6

Brand Model Size NAND backup BootMii Boot time Notes Confirmed
Samsung Pro Plus microSDXC A2 V30 in SD Adapter 256GB Works Works Successful BootMii load as boot2, untested as an IOS. Letterbomb does not work. Formatted to FAT32. 0
Kingston microSDHC in SD Adaptor Class 4 (China) 8GB Works Works Successful BootMii load on boot and through HBC. 0
SanDisk 32GB Class 10 MicroSDHC in SanDisk Adapter 32GB Works Works Works fine. (Has not been tested with BootMii IOS, this has only been tested with BootMii Boot2) 0
SanDisk 32GB SDHC 32GB Works BootMii as IOS only BootMii as boot2 gives a LONG startup before showing the system menu. BootMii as IOS works as intended and a NAND backup takes 2-3 minutes, and verifying it takes 3-5 minutes. Sometimes, BootMii fails to boot the Wii completely and forces me to force power down the system. 0
Kingston 4GB Class 4 SDHC Kingston Memory Card 4GB Works Works Works fine. 0
SanDisk 64GB Class 10 MicroSDXC in SanDisk Adapter 64GB Doesn't work Doesn't work Boots straight into System Menu. (Has not been tested with BootMii IOS, this has only been tested with BootMii Boot2) 0
Integral ultima pro (SDHC) Class 10 8GB Works Works 2~3 Works fine. (unknown yet if will function with boot2 bootmii, as this has been tested with IOS bootmii) 0
Kingston 16GB SDHC Class 4 16GB Works Works Successful BootMii load on boot and through HBC. 0
Kodak SDHC Class 2 8GB Works From HBC Only Will not boot into BootMii or System Menu 0
Lexar microSDHC Card (SDMI4GB-695) (w/ SDHC Adapter) 4GB Works From HBC Only Disc light flashes, then hangs on a black screen when the Wii is started up. Works fine when started through the HBC. NAND backup was also successful. 0
PQI 8GB SDHC 8GB Works From HBC Only Will not boot into bootmii. HBC can launch bootmii. NAND backup works but free space detection is buggy (e.g., 5GB free space was detected as only 864MB). 1
SanDisk 8GB microSDHC (Sandisk adapter) 8GB Works (with caveat) From HBC Only Doesn't appear to launch into bootmii directly (bootmii was installed via IOS), but HBC loads it just fine. Unclear whether NAND backup can work at all with this card; it decided I didn't have enough space when there was 5 GB free. A format fixed the space detection. Before, it was reading 435MB no matter the actual space, but after it was cleared, the space seemed fairly accurate and the backup/check took about 10 minutes. 0
QUMOX 2GB SD 2GB Works Works Successful BootMii load on IOS and through HBC. 0
SanDisk Ultra II SDHC 4GB Works From HBC Only Took 11-12 minutes to backup NAND. Only installed BootMii as an IOS (because of Wii model, not because of SD problem). After verification no bad blocks left. Have not tried loading backup but I assume it is good.
Kingston SDS/32GB Canvas Select UHS-I SDHC 2GB Works Doesn't work Successful BootMii load on IOS and through HBC, but not through boot2. 0
