Undo revision 119987 by HexGlaze (talk) - While many think that GNU/Linux is the correct terminology to use, Linux is the most commonly used name.

'''Bluebomb''' is an exploit for Broadcom's Bluetooth stack used in the Nintendo Wii. The main benefit of it is that it can be used on the [[Wii mini]], which lacks functionality used by other exploits. It can also be used to recover from Banner bricks. It takes advantage of the Wii's [[Bluetooth]] and injects unsigned code into the system via Bluetooth.
