The GC-Linux kernel can run under [[IOS]], Nintendo's official operating system that runs on the Wii's [[Starlet]] coprocessor, while other versions run under the alternate operating system by [[Team Twiizers]] known as mini or "[[MINI]]" (which stands for '''M'''INI '''I'''s '''N'''ot '''I'''OS)

−The IOS-based kernels can be loaded through the [[Homebrew Channel]], or the [[Twilight Hack]]. But MINI-based kernels must be loaded through MINI (which means "[[BootMii]]" must be installed). BootMii can be installed in two ways. First in [[boot2]] (where the Wii powers up into BootMii) or s in IOS (BootMii is loaded through the Homebrew Channel). Confusing, but this is current the state of Wii homebrew.
