Just rename your saves to nds.sav,it works fine

Please note i know this is not made to work on clones like mine, but i still wanted to let you know it boots up on my r4i gold, i see icons, no text though.

just thought i throw it out there, maybe you can get it working even better ^^

I think... if the created .sav won't be recognized, you can try to boot nds with R4SDHC (to "initialize" save) then return to WoodR4 (a friend of mine reported)

Wood R4li Version

Dose this mean for the R4 i.l.s cards ? , I have one just need to get back my DS to test...
All R4 clones, yes i.l.s is supported

Many thanks , now i know don't throw it in the bin!

I could not even get ysmenu to work on that at the time, the R4 sdhc i.L.S cards only worked with its own kernal from http://www.r4li.com

With a bit of editing we can get this on M3 i think.
Norrmatt also said it wouldnt be so hard

May I see your approach(aka source code) under GPL?

---
My version (not public) includes:
DLDI-ize
sav is filled with 0xff (even with this, the sav won't work until used with R4SDHC kernel)
autorunWithLastRom feature
the extension is .sav not .nds.sav

But I doubt we can analyze the card commands to boot commercial ROMs
