	'''ISFShax''' exploits boot1 using a specially designed ISFS (SLC filesystem) superblock. Once installed, it offers similar capabilities to de_Fuse. Since it runs before IOSU, it can apply early patches to IOSU and repair most types of bricks. However, it cannot protect against bricks caused by boot1 corruption, ~~seeprom~~ issues, or installing a faulty ISFShax superblock. Additionally, ISFShax cannot help if the Wii U is already bricked.		'''ISFShax''' exploits boot1 using a specially designed ISFS (SLC filesystem) superblock.
