How do that? It just goes to the menu with all of the official programs when I turn it on, I don't see anything besides those and the stretched-out screen

Okay I tried it again and it said it was missing a payload_stage.bin.


In the folder I have the arm9loaderhax-master and everything associated with it, Firm0.bin, firm0_100.bin, firm1.bin, otp.bin, and secret_sector.bin

In that release.zip file are the payload_stage files.

Thanks for the help, and sorry for being criminally retarded today, the last time I modded a system this much was a PSP about 7-8 years ago.

You're welcome. Were you able to finish? Are you stuck on something else now?

Nope, I got it all sorted out, loading up my NANDmin.bin and then the rest should be easy enough
