It's possible to play GBA cia and DSIware cia on emunand luma 11.1 ? If yes how?
sorry for my bad english
You'd just need to install the same CIA to sysNAND, as well as emuNAND. Not really sure what the person above is talking about.

Edit: If you're curious why you need to do that, I found a pretty good explanation here.

This problem is not a Luma 3DS problem, but instead a general CFW problem.
At this time we don't have the means to redirect reads/writes from SysNAND to EmuNAND while in firmware modes other than the standard CTR firmware mode, it may become possible in the future, however the need for it is not particularly prevalent, as most people now use Arm9LoaderHax and Luma 3DS with their SysNAND.

Because of this, it is needed to install both on your SysNAND and EmuNAND in order to play games that use TWL or AGB firmware modes, as when the system switches modes, it will then proceed to look for the needed content in whatever NAND the SysNAND is tied to, if the content is there, no problem, play the game, if not, it returns the standard nintendo console error screen.

It may be possible in the future with some research to allow GBA and DSiware from EmuNAND, but in that case, you will have to be using Arm9LoaderHax as your entry point, since the console has to reboot into those firmware modes, and other entrypoints don't run before AGB or TWL mode start, thus not giving us the chance to patch anything.

Basically, as it is right now, it is not possible to play GBA and DSiWare from an EmuNAND alone, it must be used in conjunction with the same content being installed on your SysNAND.
