* '''BootMii-Core''' -- This is a small bit of ARM code which is injected into [[boot2]] or [[IOS254]], replacing Nintendo's internal ELF loader. When run, it looks to see if an SD card is inserted. If so, it tries to load and execute /bootmii/armboot.bin instead of boot2. Otherwise, it will fall back to loading boot2.

* '''[[mini]]''' -- This is a rudimentary replacement for IOS that is best suited for low-level recovery functions. Source code is available under GPLv2 [https://github.com/fail0verflow/mini here].

−* '''CEIL1NG_CAT''' (or bootmii-ppc) -- When mini runs, it looks for a file named /bootmii/ppcboot.elf on the SD card. If it exists, mini loads this executable into memory, boots up the {{hw|Broadway}} (ppc) and executes that binary in parallel with mini. Source code is available under GPLv2 at (tbd).

Both mini and CEIL1NG_CAT must be present in order to draw a user interface, because the [[Starlet]] cannot directly access the {{hw|Video Interface}}.
