[[WiiToo!]] is a minimal precompiled stage4 made to let you run [http://www.gentoo.org/ Gentoo] on your Wii using [http://www.gc-linux.org/wiki/MINI:KernelPreviewFour MIKE] and [[Mini]]. It provides all the basic software required to compile and install new programs on it, and some other software ready to be used. The kernel used is plain vanilla-sources & [[Wii-Linux]] patches, so expect WiFi working out of the box.
