Some Very Important Notes:
I am NOT a programmer - all I've done is gathered together files that other (proper) programmers have done
so PLEASE no PM's asking if I can do 'this-or-that' into 'such-&-such' especially if it involves any type of programming.
I'm not using the Acekard as much now (moved to a DSTwo) so don't expect MAIO to be updated as soon as a new AKAIO comes out - It'll get updated if/when I get time
....or you could do it yourself (see 'For Regular Users of MAIO...' below)
About the latest Moonshell 2.1 'Child Zwai' editon:
Apparently at this time there is no known way to use Moonshell2 'Child Zwai' version (as it needs a different 'overlay' file) with AKAIO to make a MAIO v4.xx, so please don't keep asking why there's no version for it
Info about the latest AK2i Firmware Update (Chessmaster Icon showing on DSi/3DS
)
Since the new AK2i '3DS-Firmware fix' for DSi firmware 1.4.2 - it's been noticed that the top screen does not show when booting up MAIO on a DSi.
(Booting into AKAIO & back again will bring the screen back)
ADDITIONAL: IF you HAVE updated your Ak2i & still want to use MAIO on a DSi(XL) - Mantis41 has produced a 'workaround' version. I've included it in the MAIO v3.xx download section below
UPDATE 04-07-11: There is now a fix for those who have updated their Ak2i to work on DSi v1.4.2 but want the original MAIO v3.06 (i.e MY version & not Mantis41 'workaround' version).
Please use MAIO v3.06.1 in the download section below
For those who have a R4 or M3 card
'Mantis41' has developed a pack for those cards Here and
'sauske_firekid is currently developing another 'MAIO for R4/M3 cards' pack over here.
(He is looking for people to try out on as any of those types of cards as possible, so pop over & see if you can help out )
Please note: Mantis41 version is for genuine R4,R4iGold and R4iDS cards using a 'Wood base'
'sauske_firekid' version is (mainly) for R4 'clones' & uses a 'YSMenu' base

Introduction
By using a combination of Xenon++ and Normatt's fixes and loaders there is now a way to boot straight into Moonshell2 on an Acekard2i WITHOUT loading AKAIO first & getting it to Autorun Moonshell..
The (lucky) Acekard RPG and 2.1 users only had to rename Moonshell to 'akmenu4.nds',
while us unlucky Acekard 2i users ended up with a 'System Files missing' message instead.
So while we're waiting for akShell to appear (if it ever does) - what I've done is create a 'package' (I'm calling it 'MAIO' for short - as in 'Moonshell All-In-One') that contains all the files,fixes and loaders already set up so that all you have to do is Unzip & copy over
But first a couple of Warnings/Disclaimers
Don't replace AKAIO (without following the proper steps below) or replace Moonshell2.09 with 2.1
- The Fixes and loaders only work with the versions included in MAIO. Changing them will cause loss of Commercial ROM Running
Because it contains AKAIO 1.5.1 (MAIO 1.00/v2.00 only) some of the more recent games WILL NOT WORK - so don't complain !!!
You will have to wait until new fixes & loaders are made that are compatible with AKAIO 1.6 for those games to work
(N.B. MAIO V2.01 Now Avaliable with 1.6RC2 support)
Certain files have been DLDI patched with 'Acekard 2' libraries - may not work on Acekard R.P.G
Since I made the first MAIO package - the way to 'update' AKAIO has now changed - & it's a lot easier
note: this will only work on MAIO >=2.01
For those of you who have already downloaded MAIO in the past & wish to update AKAIO but don't want to download the whole package,
Here how to do it:-
> First make a backup off all the files on the flashcard - just to be safe
> Downloaded the latest AKAIO file & extracted it to another folder on the PC (you'll usually end up with the '_aio' folder, 'akmenu4.nds' and a couple of TXT files)
> On the flashcard - Delete the contents of the '_aio' folder EXCEPT the '/ui/' folder (so that you keep the skins already there)
> Copy the contents of the newly downloaded version of AKAIO's '/_aio' folder into the same folder on the Flashcard
> RENAME the new AKAIO's 'akmenu4.nds' to 'akaio.aio' & copied this over to the root directory of the flashcard (overwritting the existing 'akaio.aio')
Note: with MAIO v3.06 onwards the above last step has changed
> Instead, RENAME the new AKAIO's 'akmenu4.nds' to 'akmenu.nds' & copied this over to the root directory of the flashcard (overwritting the existing 'akmenu.nds')
> It is recommended that you change the 'Attribute' of this 'akmenu.nds' to 'hidden' as well (In WinXP - right click on file & select 'properties' > tick 'Hidden' > 'Apply' > 'OK')
... that's it.
It's now just a case of booting up, select 'reset to firmware' & changing the skin in AKAIO to the 'MAIO' skin
Installation
- Back up your MicroSd card (for Safety)
- Format with Panasonic Formatter
> 'MAIO' v1.00 (Contains AKAIO 1.5.1, custom 'splash.ani')
> 'MAIO v1.01' (Contains AKAIO 1.6RC2,Custom 'splash' and modified 'Maio' MS skin [~90% complete])

Screenshots/Video
p.s. The video mentions 'Moonshell 2.1beta9' & not 'Moonshell 2.09', but it's basically the same - it's just that I wastrying out another loader on 2.1beta9 at the time & couldn't be bothered to make 2 identical videos
[yt]JLEmg3krWdI[/yt]
The only major difference between the two is that MS 2.09 has a different 'splash.ani' than MS 2.1beta9
[If you want to know how it looked with AKAIO starting first then autobooting moonshell - watch near the end (~1:50) of This Video]

These are Moonshell screenshots (since that's what you'll be looking at most of the time)
What I'd like though is the AKAIO graphics for 'Folder' and 'Unknown type' so that I can use them in Moonshell skin - can anyone help ??

Buglist and Changelog
- In MAIO v2.xx version - unable to use/show custom 'splash.ani' files due to bug in MS
- In MAIO v3.xx version - Same problem as v2.00 'splash.ani' - it [Splash.ani] also shows incorrect Moonshell version number at top of screen
- Some games MAY not show proper game icon in Moonshell ('Sonic - Classic Collection' seems to be one of them)
- It seems that sometimes the 'Recently used/History' function (Pressing [select]) of Moonshell doesn't record last used App. Not sure but MAY have something to do with AKAIO 1.6RC2 support. Occurs in Any MS version
Update: This is NOT a bug - thanks to JurrasicPlayer, it's now been discovered that this function will only remember files used if the option 'Start MoonShell from Recent Files' is switched 'ON' - There's a known 'bug' of Moonshell 2 <=2.10final beta2 where it can corrupt the MicroSD card if it's >=16Gb
Xenon++ has created a fix called 'Fatpatch' - get it from this post or from Filetrip
V1.00 - Original package containing:
V2.01 - Package same as before, but without custom 'splash.ani' (due to a bug in MS2.1b9) and AKAIO 1.6RC2 support added
v3.00 - Package same as v2.01, except:
v3.07 - Updated to AKAIO v1.8.8
v3.08 - Updated to AKAIO v1.8.9
v3.09 - Updated to AKAIO v1.9.0
Also updated Emulator 'plugins' to the latest version found on Filetrip

- Cheat database upgrade to 4th May 2010
- Plugins that were added to v1.01 now added to this package
- Extra skins moved to new folder on root ('/MS2 Skins/')
- AKAIO updated to 1.7.1
- Cheat database updated to 14th July 2010
- AKAIO updated to 1.8.0
- AKAIO updated to 1.8.1 (Using Mantis41's workaround)
- AKAIO updated to 1.8.6a
- AKAIO 'Cloud' WiFi plugin added
- Cheat Database 26/03/11 added
- A couple of MAIO graphic changes in AKAIO skin
- 'nds.inilink.nds' file changed to Jurassicplayers (slightly modified) version
- Just a big cleanup in the ini files and ext directory
- A nice simple MAIO banner on inilink load
There are also some changes to the startup files. - 'akmenu4.nds' from AKAIO is now renamed to 'akmenu.nds'
- 'akaio.aio' is no longer used
'akAIO.nds' is just Taiju's iniclear. Banner on this file changed to the AK logo instead of the YS one. The file is not realy needed but is a more elegent way of exiting to akmenu than mashing the B button on a ROM load. - Additional Skins included
- AKAIO updated to 1.8.7
- BugFix: This version NOW shows with BOTH screens on boot-up with Ak2i updated to work on DSi v1.4.2/3DS v2.1
- NesDS updated to latest version
- Jurassicplayer's latest inilink and iniclear have been used and an akaio banner has been added on exit to firmware.
- All moonshell files have been updated to their latest version as per Avenir's instructions.
- Nesds runs files directly from moondhell but is still at 050.
- The original Acekard akmenu4.nds has been hex editied so it now looks for: '..\__aio\SDbootsettings.ini' and '..\__aio\lastboot.ini'
'SDbootsettings.ini' loads the skin boot_only which is mostly blank apart from the topscreen. This is used to hide akaio on boot and softreset and show the MAIO banner instead. Autorun is always on.
'Lastboot.ini' is set to always boot moonshl2.nds. You could change this to boot any NDS file you wanted.
v3.07 - Updated to AKAIO v1.8.8
v3.08 - Updated to AKAIO v1.8.9
v3.09 - Updated to AKAIO v1.9.0
Also updated Emulator 'plugins' to the latest version found on Filetrip
