Now, I'll show you a tutorial to unbrick your wii on 4.1E, the error
"The system file is corrupted. Please follow the instructions found in the Wii operations manual."
Following a bad flash of the menu in ".csm", the wii is semi-bricked,
luckily I took my precautions beforehand.
My bricked wii was equipped with:
Firmware 4.1E, Rev 14, cIOSCORPS 3.4, Starpatch and bootmii in ios on an "sd" card.


Tutorial:
This tutorial is for wiis equipped with "ciscorps", minimum installed on it before their brick!!!!!!!
Otherwise you need to follow the "savemiifree" tutorial.
The method is to put back the original ".csm" custom or another working ".csm",
otherwise it's the same method if you want to restore your systemmenu to 4.1E just download the "matching systemmenu" and of course the famous "GameCube" controller.[/color]

We're going to download "Autoboot Bootmii".

To download and burn onto a dvd-r, verbatim preferably, with imgburn:
Hidden message

the "SD" folder downloaded and to put at the root of the "sd" card:
Hidden message

So from there we have all the elements we need, let's move on to the practice:
Ps: for those who haven't installed starpatch, use the homemade "savemiifree" and
have an original game with an update higher than your wii's
.(I haven't tested with savemiifree)

1 - Turn on the wii, insert the "autobootBootmii" dvd and the "SD" card as well as the gamecube controller.

2 - Turn off the wii, and turn it back on again while holding down the "Y" button
on the "GameCube" controller.


There you go, normally the dvd should boot and the "mymenuify" found on the "SD" card
should appear like in the video.
All that's left is to choose the "csm" folder and choose one of the 4.1E themes.
Careful!!!!! these are 4.1E themes, otherwise for other themes on 4.0E etc.....
it's up to you to find the one that matches your systemmenu.


Ps: you can replace the "boot.dol" found at the root of the "SD" card,
with any homebrew depending on your needs.

And as a bonus the video, enjoy watching:

Do you have bootmii in boot2? If you have it in IOS, do you have a chip or the CIOS PACK?
