EDIT: This tutorial is outdated, and shitty. The best one is available here. Follow that one please.
Its been some time that a9lh has been released, and I found that many people (including me) were looking for a guide. So I decided to make one.
This guide will require you to follow some more guides too, cuz this is my first guide.
EDIT: Short version added

Requirements:
STEP 1: GETTING YOUR UNIQUE OTP.bin
You will have to backup your NANDs and restore them in this section; Keep your entertainment source ready.
I won't copy paste @Plailect's guide, so you can directly go to it by clicking here.
I recommend you to dump your OTP atleast 3 times and compare them, to avoid getting a corrupt OTP.bin
After getting your OTP.bin and restoring your NANDs, continue to the next Step.
STEP 2: COMPILING YOUR ARM9LOADERHAX
Warning: Do not use anybody else's OTP.bin in this step, it will result into a HARD BRICK.
Now as you have your OTP.bin, you can compile your arm9loaderhax!
There are 3 ways to do this:
Now, you wont trust the site and want somebody else to compile it for you. You can search for someone volunteering to do so on GBATemp. But here, you're giving your OTP.bin to somebody else, and who knows what he might do with it?
So you might not trust the website or anybody else, and would want to compile it yourself. You can do so, but you'll need to download software which I think you won't want in future. But if you insist, here is the guide (thanks to @lefthandsword) If you chose to follow that guide, you need not follow this one anymore =)
Once you have your arm9loaderhax.3dsx put it in a folder named arm9loaderhax and put that folder in the /3ds folder in your SD Card. Proceed to the next step.
STEP 3 : INSTALLING ARM9LOADERHAX
WARNING: DO NOT USE ANYBODY ELSE'S ARM9LOADERHAX.3DSX FOR YOUR CONSOLE, IT WILL RESULT INTO A HARD BRICK.
As now you have arm9loaderhax.3dsx, put the file from here on the root of your SD Card, and then open the Homebrew Launcher in sysNAND.
Now launch the arm9loaderhax.3dsx file from the launcher, and wait for it to install . After that, it will reboot, and shutdown on a button press if you put the file i mentioned on the root of your SD card.
Congratulations, you successfully installed arm9loaderhax on your 3DS!
Now you might wanna install a CFW compatible with a9lh, and I recommend AuReiNAND for that, although rxTools, CakesFW and ReiNAND are available too.
Long things short:
-Follow this guide
-Drop your OTP.bin here to download the installer
-Install on sysNAND
-Boom! There you get a9lh.

- Compile it on Cloud (Easiest and Fast)
