Please note that our information on this topic is limited. It is mostly based on information from a single old HackMii article (which, to be fair, provides a lot of information), as well as assumptions. While that's not a great base for something like this, there isn't really a whole lot we can do about it; the only place we can really go from here is analyzing whole NAND dumps for remains, and once we figure out how to do that, we will gain some insights, but we still won't be able to answer every question without some kind of amazing discovery like the factory discs being dumped, which isn't bound to happen anytime soon. So while this may turn out to be inaccurate and end up being updated in the future, this is the process to the best of our understanding right now.

Before setup, boot0, 1, and 2 are flashed, which begin the necessary processes of booting up the Wii in preparation for setup. Setup begins with a disc only titled "123J", also known as Data Check & Log Check, doing everything such as encrypting the NAND flash and potentially updating boot1. Another disc is inserted titled "121J", which we have less knowledge of. However, we know it enables the GameCube functionality of the Wii, and makes a factory test log file. Finally, a disc titled "0002", also known as "Data Check & Log Check", which runs tests from an SD card. After those tests, the Wii is done with its factory phase and it would be now ready to ship.
