the message"LOADING..." on the DSi's top screen, is shows that loading Kenerl softare failed. you should confirm there're the belowing files on TF card's root-directory:
moonmemo ---Sub-directory
moonshl2 ---Sub-directory
R4iMenu ---Sub-directory
R4 ---DAT file

Thanks for your message. Alright so clearly I am dumb when it comes to this stuff.

Do I have to

a) Setup the card like an R4I with the files you indicated, (From http://www.r4ultra.com/guide.htm) then run the firmware update file?

or

b) Setup the card like an Acecard with files from ak2i_setup.zip then run the firmware update?

Thanks!

Also in relation to the above, where would I put the r4ifw_update_14_DSi.nds file so it updates it? Also where do the games go?

Also the official firmware only includes the following:

_system_ (folder)
moonshl (folder)
_ds_menu.dat
_ds_menu.ini
_ds_mshl.nds

So I ended up applying the above to the microsd card, plus added the folders from your post. The DSLITE booted up. I had three options - Multimedia, games, and boot from slot 2. The only way I seemed to be able to run r4ifw_update_14_DSi.nds was from multimedia. Once run, I put it in the DSI however still got "an error has occurred".

What am I missing?

Alright I figured it out. I clicked one of the buttons (A) and then highlighted the file and clicked A again. It updated it.

Now when I run it, it shows it as R4 revolution for DS. I imagine it is supposed to say this rather than R4I.

Games location: Can I make any folder (E.g. games) and just put them in?

Will this be the standard interface? Or is there a better one?

Thanks again
