load startup IOS "bug" #18

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago
this one actually isnt entirely your fault.

Since most homebrew just uses IOS36 and lower by default, I have installed
a version of sneek to my nand in the IOS69 spot.  Since you have changed
the loading of the startup IOS to start at 70 and count down, and I dont
have 70, it loads the SNEEK IOS.

Obviously this can be fixed by simply installing a IOS70.  But i think the
loadstartupIOS function should also be a bit smarter than that.  When the
function only checks ~33 IOSes, there is a small chance that it will run
across something that isnt a standard IOS.  especially when there is an
official IOS 38, 37, 36, 35, 34, ect.  it can count down and be guaranteed
to find one it likes.

Your method starts at 70 and then it just HOPES that there is nothing there
till it gets to 61 and 60.  Then it does more HOPING here and there for
another 20 or so IOSes.  there is much room for error there.

either it should start at a group of sequential IOSes that were present in
system menu 3.2, or it should have predefined IOSes that it will try for
the startup IOS.

I completely agree and will work on implementing this immediately so that we do 
not have compatibility issues with future Wii system updates.
