I was using ctrbootmanager and I had very good boot rate for Reinand, now I´m using the latest version and the bootrate has gone a little worse, can someone share a cfg info to improve the boot rate? (I´ve heard editing the cfg can make it better)

Is there a method of loading the Brahma2 Loader with arguments, eg "/brahma/uncart.bin 0x12000 0x0 0xF"

This was running just fine but then I made an edit to my boot.cfg and it says it can't find it.

I changed my boot.cfg back to what it was previously but it still can't find it. I moved it off the SD card to my desktop and back on, just to "rewrite" it as it were, it still says it can't find the boot.cfg? All the files are there when I managed the SD card on my PC, any clues please?

Start from scratch and use notepad++, not notepad.

It's on the root of the SD card and the extension is .cfg, like I said, it was working before.

I ALWAYS use notepad++. I've done just this and it still can't find it.

To add, it says press to continue with a default configuration, but pressing any button doesn't do anything, it just stays on the screen telling me that it can't find boot.cfg

maybe your SD got corrupted? Try copying everything off of it, then do a slow format with SD formatter, then copy everything back.

Hello, I put 1.9 on and when I select HomeMenu the 3ds freezes...what is meant to happen? I use Reinand so I dunno if its just not for me anyway. Also when I enter HBL from ctrbootmanager and select the new "exit" the 3ds freezes. Could someone tell me if these are normal or user error.

If you use homelenuhax and its set to autoboot, you'll have to press your "skip homenuhax" button to be able to use this function.

Doesn't the skip menuhax button just take me to sysnand? I guess I just don't understand the homemenu option or what it's meant to do. Hbl also freezes when selecting exit when launched via ctrbootmanager. I'm just trying to understand why.

Edit: nevermind about everything u are indeed helpful and correct. Tried it and I see it boots to sysnand which suddenly made sense. I have a 1 year old that makes me so busy that sometimes my brain is just fried and I can't think.

Can you explain the "back to homemenu" thing..... whats the purpose of this really? And which homemenu (CFW or Sysnand)?
if you are in sysNAND and you open boot.3dsx (from inside sysNAND), then you will load CtrBootManager which will display your boot options(such as rxTools, reinand, other CFWs, HomeBrewLauncher etc). Now, you will have an option to RETURN back to your home menu(sysNAND) instead of rebooting. If you auto-boot into emuNAND(via menuhax) or never use sysNAND, then this option is useless for you, but a good one nonetheless.

Instead of restarting the system? And what about the CFWs (boot.3dsx trough CFW), does it return to CFW home menu or sysnand? So, it seems useless to me (autoboot to cfw, select for ctr boot manager or any key pressed for sysnand).

A screenshot usually helps. Could I read what the .cfg file says as well?
