Changes

Once 0002 has executed all its tests and verified that the Wii's hardware is OK to ship out, there's still one more step; installing the System Menu, IOSes, and channels. This process is akin to a standard disc update, where a disc is inserted, the contents of it are read, and WAD files are installed from those contents. The disc that handles this is known as 122E. Not much is specifically known about it, but it's pretty clear what it does; it installs the files on it, and sets up the Wii to be unboxed by the customer for the first time. As such, there are presumably many versions of this disc, and whenever Nintendo wanted to do an update to the Wii's pre-installed software, they just issued an update to this disc. Once this disc has finished doing its stuff, you're done; the System Menu has been installed, all of the pre-installed software has been installed, and the Wii is ready for packaging up and shipping. 35-year-old Jenny goes out and buys the Wii from her local Target and spends 10 minutes trying to figure out how to set up the sensor bar, then gets past the language select screen and sets it up so she can finally play Zumba Fitness.
