Please take two pictures -- one of the error message, and one of the info screen that has your console ID. Attach them to this bug, along with your keys.bin file.

I've got the exact same problem, and in case you need keys from more people, here's mine as well. :)

we found the bug and will fix it in the next release.
don't worry, your nand backups are fine.
You can append the key file to your nand backups just in case you need to restore them and are unable to and/or don't want to go back to beta2.

Put the files (keys.bin and nand.bin) in root of the SD card, then:

Windows:
1) Start -> Run -> cmd
2) Find the drive letter of your SD card, for example, F:.
3) Type this, replace the X with the drive letter: cd X:\
4) Type this: copy /b nand.bin + keys.bin nand.bin
5) ?????
6) PROFIT!!!

*nix (Mac and Linux):
1) Open a terminal.
2) Find the mount point of your SD card (/media/VOLUMENAME often on Linux, /Volumes/VOLUMENAME on Mac)
3) Type this, replacing MOUNTPOINT with the mount point of your SD card: cd MOUNTPOINT
4) Type this: cat nand.bin keys.bin > nand.bin
5) ?????
6) PROFIT!!!

Icefire thanks but that doesn't fully work theres a extra step your forgetting, before you do that, theres a error in the key.bin that you have to fix first. in the key.bin were it says consoleID you must add a space between Console and ID then do what you say and it will work otherwise you'll still just the dump is for a different Wii. try it and see if you dont believe me

@Thomas & icefire
if you realy want to be clean and functional :
1- hex edit you keys.bin the offset 0x00000013, add(=insert) 1 byte between 0x00000013 and 0x00000014 with the value 20(the new 0x00000014 = 20(=in binary 00100000))
2- REMOVE the offset 0x00000100 normaly it's an zero value (00)

after follow one of this method posted on top by icefire (depend on ours operating system):

quoted:

Windows:
1) Start -> Run -> cmd
2) Find the drive letter of your SD card, for example, F:.
3) Type this, replace the X with the drive letter: cd X:\
4) Type this: copy /b nand.bin + keys.bin nand.bin
5) ?????
6) PROFIT!!!

3) Type this, replacing MOUNTPOINT with the mount point of your SD card: cd MOUNTPOINT
4) Type this: cat nand.bin keys.bin > nand.bin

:) thanks for the solid instructions to lazy to explain things myself, theirs also a new PPcboot.elf floating around that also fixes the problem, surely they'll re-include it in the hackmii installer if they haven't already.
