nandloader is a special boot2 build which seems to have been used only for testing. When executed, it loads executable data placed at NAND pages 0x80-0xAF and jumps straight to it. This happens without any security check, so it can be used to run unsigned code (such as BootMii) just like with sd_boot. The advantage of executing code with nandloader is that no SD/SDHC card is needed, which makes it suitable for the [[Wii Mini]]. It should be noted that, unlike sd_boot, this boot2 build doesn't have any official name.

This boot2 also uses version number 0. In order to install this boot2, zeroing out the boot2 version in the SEEPROM is needed.
