My Disc's are the following:
Action Replay Max version 1.14A
Max Drive Pro version 1.1 - USA
I boot into action replay first, goto freeloader, then eject action replay disc and put in Max Drive Pro disc. From the Max Drive Pro menu I can run any .dol file off my MaxDrive in the GC memory card slot.
This is still working, on the latest Wii (NTSC) firmware update as of today. _________________ -LiquidIce

So is homebrew on the GameCube half of the Wii possible? With a softmod?
Datel no longer makes/sells the Max Drive Pro and I have not been able to locate one at a store that sells used accessories. They do however still make the SD Media Launcher, which can be used to softmod a GameCube too in much the same way as the Max Drive. So I want to know if it is possible to do this on the Wii.
EDIT: Also, do we know yet how the Wii handles GameCube exactly, and how it knows when a disc is GameCube or Wii disc? Is it detecting whether it is 8cm/12cm or is it actually detecting through some other means? I really hope it's detecting it through firmware or something other than physically, because then I would wonder about doing some sort of double-trick. |

The SD Media Launcher is marked for and works on the Wii. I wish it had been out earlier, as I would've gotten one of those instead of the Action Replay and Gecko adapter, which I still haven't gotten running.

It's firmware based, IIRC, you can use Action Replay's Freeloader to boot homebrew off a regular sized DVD. Also IIRC, you can't access the full disc unless you have a mod chip installed, only what's in the 8cm area. |
