Is there a way I can get just YSM3 to auto-boot, instead of having to find the file, and to save myself some memory and to be able to play new games? :/

I beleive Retro's file contains the auto-boot file

So I just put it on my M3i and it will autoboot? :DDD

I believe so.

I don't need any of the M3 system files, correct?

You only need the system folder he provides.

How odd, you might need to talk to Retro about that since I am not sure how to make it boot

Hrmm, alright. Maybe I just need to format? What should I put the settings on the Panasonic Formatter?
Click to expand...
I just use the Default setting myself

Yeah, all I had to do was format my card. xD

Well that's good.

Can you add to Quad-Boot Wood M3 ?
New Update + YSMenu + WooD M3 = Happy ^^
Click to expand...
No I will not add Wood M3 to the Quad-Boot since that would make this just a replacement for M3 ninetails.

But if the next Sakura does lock out the alternate firmwares, I will replace it with Wood M3 if gaboros doesn't mind

Ugh, I've just had the misfortune to find out that I ended up buying the wrong card (M3i Zero GMP Z003) and now I can't use this nor use a lot of other alternate firmware...

I don't suppose there'll be any chance of the Quad Boot being patched at a later date to be usable on the GiMPy or have I wasted $30+?

Sadly even if I could fix it, I am not buying a GMP Z003 to test it out on, so you pretty much wasted 30$

Ugh...I don't think I could be any more annoyed if I tried. Any threads I could read or suggestions as to what to get next if I ever do get anything next?

I will be updating the Quad-Boot in the morning or later tonight. Right now I am sharing the network with 2 people playing MMO's and hate dealing with the complaints about the lag.
Sorry about that everyone.
Has just been updated!

Hi,

If there is a way to assist you, like testing a version with debug mode and return to you a dump or log file.... I am at your disposal with my GMP Z003 !!

Thanks for your great work.

If you know what you are doing, go ahead. I need as much as possible with this firmware.
