    i did the softmod on the wii and made a nand backup during the process

    just wondering if i should make another nand backup after the softmod is finished so i can restore the softmod later if there's a problem?

    or is the purpose of the backup only to restore wii if it gets bricked 'during' the softmod process?

    thanks in advance for clarifying

    It's not necessary but might come in handy so what harm?

    I make a copy of the nand anytime I install new software directly onto the Wii, wads and the like, just in case I have a dodge wad and I don't have to reinstall everything from the beginning.
    You can reload the bootmii onto your sd anytime you need it from the pc, doesn't have to be permanently on your card.

    i think i uninstalled it from the wii-not just deleted off the sd card

    Bootmii shouldn't have installed to your wii directly. If you installed Homebrew channel, press the home button and its listed there, but make sure and have a copy of it on the sd card before you press it otherwise the wii will blackscreen. Bootmii is designed to run from your sd and not the wii internal memory (unless you had a wad file for bootmii)
