'''''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.

Now put your SD card on the reader, find the corresponding device file on /dev, mine is /dev/mmcblk0, (Tip: See dmesg output if you are on linux) and umount any partition that can be mounted (Check with df). Now use fdisk to create a primary fat16 partition (this will be our boot partition), 30M should be enough for WiiToo! kernel images + bootmi, but if you are going to use another homebrew apps, or to store data from your Wii, make it bigger. Finally create the partition for the root filesystem (the bigger the better :D), exit fdisk, and unplug the SD card.
