Install WADs to SD Card?

Well, I've got my Wii a few days ago, updated to 4.1U i think, used Bannerbomb to install Homebrew Channel, used Trucha Restorer to enable WAD installation, so far working perfectly, the only problem I had was when I tried to copy a WiiWare game installed from the WAD to the SD Card, when I tried it showed me an error but don't remember exactly what it said. Is there any way to copy these games to the SD Card? I've read somewhere I had to patch another IOS, but I'm not entirely sure on this. I've patched IOS 15 and 36, so WAD Manager would work, otherwise when trying to install a WAD it would show ret -2022 or something like that. Or could this be a problem with the game I was trying to copy? Because when I reinstalled it and tried to launch it directly from the Wii memory, it froze on a white screen.
Edit: read this on GBATemp:
As long as you have cIOS installed (IOS249) you should be able to install wads fine using IOS249 through wad manager 1.4 as you seem to do fine already. Running installed wad's through the sd card menu requires the patched IOS60 as also said by others.
How do I do this?
Edit: Got it working, here is what I did:
Launch the "IOS60/61 Installer/Patcher", from The Homebrew Channel.
At the first prompt, it will ask you if you want to install IOS61.  Press "B", to Deny.
At the second prompt, it will ask you if you want to install IOS60.  Press "A", to Confirm.
Watch carefully, to be sure everything gets installed correctly.  If you encounter any errors, rerun the "IOS60/61 Installer/Patcher", until IOS60 installs correctly.
At the third prompt, it will ask you if you want to patch IOS60.  Press "A", to Confirm.
Watch carefully, to be sure everything gets patched correctly.  If you encounter any errors, rerun the "IOS60/61 Installer/Patcher", until the patch installs correctly.
At the last prompt, it wil ask you if you want to install the latest Shop Channel.  Press "B", to Deny.
Reboot.
Use wad manager channel to instal Custom IOS 60 Wad.
Using instructions from wehackwii, copied Bonsai Barber to SD Card, launched and worked perfectly.
