It is helpfull to know how to install wad files in case some of the channels you bought got deleted. In my case, i caught my brother trying to update my wii and yanked the power cables out of the wall, effectively erasing everything on my wii. Now i know what your thinking, 'OK, once i figure out how to do this, i am going to find a website that distributes wad files and install them to my hearts content.'

Even though the laws get a bit shadey when dealing with downloaded pirated content, DO NOT DOWNLOAD A WAD FILE YOU DID NOT ORIGINALY PAY FOR!!! If you do and get caught, it is not my fault. If you get a banner brick, it is also not my fault, though if you listen to me exactly and only download wad files for your region wii, that wont happen. If you are still worried, skip to the last step first to figure out how to install starfall, an application that will allow you to boot the twilight hack and remove the bad wad.
To properly prepare the sd card (i assume you already formatted it, if not follow the link in the supplies list to thundaboys instructable.) you need to make a folder called 'apps' without the quotes and a folder called 'wad' without the quotes. Well the note function for pictures isnt working on my computer, but i figure you get the gist of what im trying to tell you.
First pic is root of sd card. 2nd is apps folder.
Now this is my apps folder, and unless you have done homebrew before, you should only have wad manager 1.3 in here, as you can see highlighted by the mouse. 3rd is wad folder, my wad is legend of zelda ocarina of time master quest. Corel drawings x3 pro. I chose that wad because, since nintendo didnt make it, they cant call piracy on you for stealing it. Also when you download the wad manager, you copy the wad manager folder to your apps folder, and if the dol file is not named boot.dol, go into the wad manager folder and rename it to boot.dol. Is the link for the masterquest wad. Put the SD card in the sd card slot on the wii, then open up your preffered method of launching homebrew. Launch the wad manager, then press a untill it tells you to choose your wad file.
