Determining Disk Version
You will need to look at the Zelda disk to see wich version you have. Use the table below to determine which version you have. On the back side of the disk you will see, in the outside of the center ring you will see text like "RZDE". This is what you need to look for to see to choose the right save slot. Use the table below to choose the correct one.

Steps
- Begin by formatting your SD card to FAT16 if it is not already (in Windows it's just called "FAT"). FAT32 should also work in the latest release.
- If you get an error such as "Failed to read boot.elf (-1)!" then reformatting your SD card with the Official SD Card Format Tool may help.
- To do this on Mac OS X, open the Disk Utility (in Finder click the Go menu, select Utilities and find it there). Your SD card should show up as two entries. Choose the second entry, and then go to the Erase tab. Select the FAT16 option in the Volume Format dropdown, and assign a name to the device (if you want to), then click Erase. Confirm that you want to erase, and then follow the rest of this guide when it's done.
- Copy the "private" directory from the download to the root your SD card.
- Take your homebrew Wii executable (elf or dol file) and save it in the root directory of your SD card as "boot.elf" or "boot.dol" as appropriate.
If you would like to install the homebrew channel read the guide below, if not step this step.
