'''IOS4''' was a very primitive [[IOS]] that was used by both the [[Startup Disc Menu]] and the [[System Menu]] used in the factory process. This IOS and the System Menu come preburnt at the factory, before any other discs are inserted.

IOS4 has code for USB, SD, the disc drive, and USB Ethernet, but does not have code for [[WiiConnect24]] (which was added in [[IOS5]]), SSL, or WiFi.

+
Like [[IOS10]] and older versions of [[IOS9]], this IOS does not have a build tag.

! Version
+
U.S. update partitions are set to use this IOS in their [[TMD]]. Other regions are not yet known.
! [[Signing bug]]?

! [[STM Release Exploit]]?
+
[[IOS3]] and IOS4 are also the only two [[IOS]]es stubbed on the [[Wii mini]], since most IOSes will hang on the Wii mini due to the WiFi module not responding.
! Notes
+
 
|-
+
The [[SDK]] version that uses IOS4 probably only supports 4:3 video; this is evident in the [[Wii Startup Disc]]'s SDK, which most likely uses IOS4.
| v1

| Yes
+
Unlike most IOSes, IOS4 seems to do some verification of the TMD to be loaded involving [[:/sys/cert.sys]] when it starts up. The depth of this verification is not yet known, and it is not known why this code was removed from IOS9 and later.

* The kernel only allows 68 threads

* Threads are not stored at FFFE0000

* There is a [[:/dev/sdio/WiFi]] device
| ?

** There is no [[:/dev/sdio/slotw]], although it appears that slotw may have been an equivalent of WiFi on the main host controller.
| Used in Startup Disc Menu

* The kernel unmaps [[boot0]] later in its startup

{{IOS version history|

{{IOS version|v1|none|Used by older versions of the Factory System Menu and 0000. Uses CID 35016B91, which is -CAFE946F. 946F in decimal is 37999, which is most likely a global content ID similar to what the iQue Player had.}}
 +
{{IOS version|v3|none|Used in Startup Disc Menu and newer versions of the Factory System Menu. Present on launch-day Wiis. Uses CID 0.}}
 +
{{IOS version|v259|?|Preinstalled on Korean consoles. Also uses CID 0 (no build tag or $IOSVersion tags), probably reset for release.}}
 +
{{IOS version|v65280|stub|[[Stub IOS]] released in [[3.3rev03]] and [[3.5]]. Probably v65280 because different locations were unaware of the versions of IOS4 released. Uses content IDs 9-b, so there are 9 versions between v1 and v65280.}}
