I have problems at 'Section II - Installing boot9strap 1. Boot your device while holding (Start) to launch the Luma3DS chainloader menu' from the 3ds.guide website.

If i press start while booting it boots to the home menu and not to the Luma3DS chainloader menu... anyone knows how to fix that? and sorry for my bad englisch.

Edit: Also, is the SafeB9SInstaller.bin in the folder as well?

Older versions of Luma don't have the chainloader menu. (I think it was added in a post-6.6 nightly build.)

Rename godmode9.firm to start_godmode9.firm, then hold Start while turning on the 3DS.

It still just boots into the home menu :/

Is the SafeB9SInstaller renamed "start_SafeB9SInstaller.bin" ?
Also, are you on the latest version of luma3ds ?

Yes, i renamed it to start_SafeB9SInstaller.bin.

My Luma3DS is on v6.6 and my /luma/payload/ folder contains this 3 files

start_GodMode9.bin
start_GodMode9.firm
start_SafeB9SInstaller.bin

if this is any helpful...

Right, you're on A9LH right now. If start_* isn't working, try something like /luma/payloads/y_SafeB9SInstaller.bin

Then hold Y while turning on the 3DS.

Note that it needs to be the .bin payload for A9LH. Luma3DS 7.0.5 and earlier won't work with .firm payloads.

I tried everything now, deleted the start_godmode9.bin file, renamed start_SafeB9SInstaller.bin to y_SafeB9SInstaller.bin and my payloads folder was named payloads all the time.. but nothing works.

Idk maybe im missing a file somewhere :/

Are you running the latest version of A9LH? Could be that the screen just isn't initing.

Try renaming arm9loaderhax.bin to arm9loaderhax_si.bin?
