disable its need for AHBPROT. this will get "fixed" in priiloader 0.8 if i ever
end up releasing it (priiloader 0.8 adds the possibility to use IOS58 with
ahbprot)

Thanks for this info. How do I disable AHBPROT? Does that require a recompile
of the WiiMC binary (something beyond my scope of knowledge)? Looking forward
to 0.8 :)

open the meta.xml from wiimc and delete the </no_ios_reload> line. keep in mind
by doing so you will make it so that wiimc can't read stuff from dvd (which is
only possible with older dvd drives anyway)

I removed "<no_ios_reload/>" from wiimc's meta.xml per your instructions.
Under the Priiloader load/install file screen, it now shows up as "WiiMC"
instead of "WiiMC (AHBPROT Available)".
However, the IOS warning box still comes up when WiiMC loads (yes, I did
reinstall WiiMC as the load file in Priiloader). WiiMC comes up on IOS 70.
Any other suggestions? I'm using WiiMC 1.2.2 now (latest ver)

in that case, you probably dont have IOS58 installed? :s
normally if you didn't have AHBPROT chosen for the app it checks for the
following ioses and in these order
IOS 58
IOS 61
IOS 36
if all the ios's above are stub, unavailable or just have a faulty version
number they will be detected as a no go, and priiloader will use the SM ios
which is happening :/

I do have IOS 58 installed (v24.31)
If I load WiiMC through HBC (1.0.8), it's on 58 as expected (and HBC is on 58)
I just did some experimenting....if I set HackMii as the boot file, it comes up
on 58. However, when WiiMC is the boot file, it comes up on 70 for some reason.
I'm trying to make the Wii act like a media player as I don't really play games
on it. I hope I can get it to just boot to WiiMC w/o the warning screen. Any
other thoughts/suggestions? :)

Quick update: I used DOP-Mii to check IOS58 status and discovered I had v6175.
I updated it to v6176, but the same problem is still present.

I noticed my IOS 61 was out of date, so I updated that to see if WiiMC would
load on 61, but it still came up on 70.

so, wiimc is reloading the IOS by itself cause it doesn't have AHBPROT.
if you have priiloader 0.7, enable beta updates and update to 0.8 BETA if you
want. see if it works there :)

Yeah, it works! Thank you!
I installed 0.8b2 per your suggestion and the Wii boots to WiiMC on 58, no more
IOS warning screen.
However, I can't seem to install WiiMC as my load file in this version of
Priiloader (states "Writing file failed..."). I already have WiiMC 1.2.2
installed under priiloader 0.7, so that just carried over to 0.8b2, but I
wonder if I won't be able to update to new versions of WiiMC in the future?
I guess a possible workaround would be to downgrade Priiloader to 0.7, install
WiiMC, then upgrade Priiloader back to the current beta.
Nevertheless, thanks again!

the latest wiimc seems to install fine for me? :s
do you have the latest wiimc? if so, go to the settings enable dump gecko
output and see if it says anything about not able to save the dol

Yes, I'm using WiiMC 1.2.2 (the latest). I am able to install other dols, but
just not WiiMC. The prii.txt file was empty (said something like "Dump Gecko
Output Enabled", but no other information).
What IOS do you have Priiloader load? Mine is set to SM IOS (70 for my 4.2U
system). Could that make a difference?
To reinstall WiiMC, I downgraded Priiloader to 0.7, reinstalled WiiMC 1.2.2,
then upgraded Priiloader back to 0.8b2.
Another note, I left AHBPROT enabled when I reinstalled WiiMC to see what would
happen. Under Priiloader 0.8b2, it still loads to IOS 58, so there doesn't
appear to be a need to disable AHBPROT.

indeed, in priiloader 0.8 beta the AHBPROT doesn't matter anymore. i just
wonder why it errors...(and ill have to see if i removed my gecko output or
something :s)
also, im surprised the txt was empty. leave the setting enabled , boot HBC and
check the file
if there is nothing in it then something must be wrong :/

does it say failed to write dol or failed to write nfo?
Original comment by dac...@gmail.com

When I try to install WiiMC, it says something like "Write File Failed".
Here's the output from prii.log:
BootState:0
Reset Button is held down
FAT_Init():1
PAD_Init():1
WPAD_Init():0
One note, when I have Dump Gecko Output enabled, I hold down reset and hit
power to enter the Priiloader menu at boot, it core dumps as soon as I release
the reset button unless I enter a submenu first.

failed or nfo failed...
