How to Mod Wii System Menu 4.2 using Indiana Pwns Exploit

[Carson]

The Indiana Pwns is a safe, public way to enable homebrew on a Wii without hardware modification. The Indiana Pwns is achieved by playing a hacked game save for LEGO Indiana Jones which executes a homebrew application from an external SD card. Examples of such homebrew .elf or .dol files can be found on the Homebrew applications page. The Indiana Pwns was created by Team Twiizers.

What you need:

• SD card (≤ 2GB, not SDHC) (The game, and therefore the exploit, can only read SD cards, not SDHC)
• SD card reader
• Indiana Pwns Exploit
• A LEGO Indiana Jones game that has been played at least once
• Some homebrew to load (e.g. the Homebrew Channel installer)

How to do it:

• Make sure your SD card is formatted as FAT. By default SD cards are formatted as FAT, so if you're not sure, you may skip this step.
• (Optional) If you have an existing Indiana save that you want to backup, do so before proceeding:
  1. Put your SD card in your Wii.
  2. Go into Wii Options ⇒ Data Management ⇒ Save Data ⇒ Wii
  3. Find your Indiana save, click on it, click "Copy", and click Yes.
  4. Put your SD card in your computer, and copy the "private" folder from the card to a safe place.
• Copy the "private" directory from the Indiana Pwns download to the root of your SD card.
• Take your homebrew Wii executable (ELF file) and save it in the root directory of your SD card as "boot.elf".
• Put your SD card in your Wii and turn it on.
• Go into Wii Options ⇒ Data Management ⇒ Save Data ⇒ Wii.
• Find your Indiana save, click on it, click "Erase", and click Yes.
• Open the SD card and select the "Indiana Pwns" save that corresponds to your game region.
• Click copy and then yes. Now exit out of the menu.
• Insert LEGO Indiana Jones disc and run the game.
• From the Indiana game, load the saved game you just copied to the Wii.
• When the game loads, you will be in Barnett College. Walk to the Art Room (through the Courtyard), approach the left character on the podium. When it zooms on him, choose the switch to option (two silhouettes, staggered, with an arrow pointing between them).
• Here, the buffer overflow takes over and the Homebrew install will begin.
