== Overhalled article ==
−Bushing [[#Needs some work |said]] this article sucks few months back. I split it up, wrote a proper intro etc. [[User:Sge|Sge]] 06:24, 30 January 2010 (UTC)
−:Oh, and I added a bit on MINI vs IOS at the start. Very useful info IMO. I'm no expert in that, so if anything is completely wrong please fix it... [[User:Sge|Sge]] 07:13, 30 January 2010 (UTC)
:Yeah, the article sucks. Splitting the article is a good first step I think. <small>—Preceding unsigned comment added by [[User:Sge|Sge]] ([[User talk:Sge|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Sge|contribs]]) 07:01, 29 January 2010 (UTC)</small>

::OK. I'm doing a complete overhall of this article. Huge amounts of information is repeated, irrelavent (ie. needs separate article) or just needs to be moved. [[User:Sge|Sge]] 04:58, 30 January 2010 (UTC)

+::: Did some more work on the article. It's pretty much the best it can be with the current state of things. [[User:Sge|Sge]] 07:04, 8 February 2010 (UTC)

However, after doing a more thorough sweep of the sd card using df -T and fdisk -L I noticed that, don't ask how, an 'other' type partition (unused) had mysteriously superimposed itself over the Linux one! It had the same start and end blocks, size, et cetera. And of course trying to use Wiiload to install from a USB medium always ended in nothing but a lost+found folder being placed on the ext3 partition, so, I think the SD card is probably just toast. I have always had this problem trying to boot Wii-Linux and it has always been that same card. Can I just do the same partitioning / filesystem processes on a USB hard drive and boot it that way?
