Linux for Wii Released - The Wii Homebrew Explosion Continues
The Gamecube Linux team have today released a Proof Of Concept version of Linux for the Nintendo Wii, heres the release news:
Although we haven't posted any news in the last 2 years, we have silently continued our work keeping the kernel patches up to date. With the latest 2.6.24 (http://downloads.sourceforge.net/gc-...24-gc.patch.gz) release we have added support for the USB Gecko (http://www.usbgecko.com/faq.htm) adapter as a console and terminal, so you can now logon into your gc-linux distro using minicom or HyperTerminal (TM). And last but not least, we have finally run natively Linux on the Nintendo Wii through Team Tweezers' twilight-hack (http://wiibrew.org/index.php?title=Twilight_Hack). We have released a small usbgecko-enabled Proof of Concept (http://downloads.sourceforge.net/gc-...ux-PoC-0.1.tgz) mini-distro to prove it. Did I say have fun?
What awesome news

Wow, so even Linux has been squeezed into the Wii huh? I too should think about getting this game soon, don't want to have a patched one that would prevent me running homebrew on the recently fould exploit.

yeah, i would be pissed if i get a patched one..
btw, i ordered super mario galaxy, i should get it today probably..
i bought smg `cus zelda doesn`t look fun anymore, in 3d :P
i have beaten hourglass, but i was very disapointed when i realised that you can`t save after the last boss..
so i`m gonna buy zelda TP just for homebrew..
EDIT: The first zelda on nes is by far the best zelda game EVER!

I would love to run it, but I won't be able to until an internal sd loader is made. After one of those is made the wii scene will explode. I am patiently awaiting that time

Amazing, lots of possibilities here
Still waiting for an update that doesn't require extra hardware though but I'm sure that's not too far off.
