Ok. So followed the guide to install bootstrap 9 to a new 2ds xl on 11.5. everything was good until the system transfer. It said completed so I wiped the source 3DS SD before I moved the dsi ware titles to the target system. Total N00b mistake. Is there any way I can recover from this or am I stuck doing it all over again in 7 days?

Also, I have another modded 3ds that I can do a system transfer to the 2ds. Do I have to wait 7 days on the target 2ds before doing another transfer to it? or is it only 7 days to do a transfer from a ds?

If I understand the situation correctly, the DSiWare title should already be on the target 3DS, and you should be able to install B9S. Is that correct? If so, you should worry about that first. Or did you not do a system transfer?

If you deleted the contents of your source SD card without backing them up, then there's no way to recover them without using recovery software, and that's very much not recommended since the result will likely be fragmented and cause issues.

Yeah, I assumed it was too far done. Thought the transfer was completely done but it wasn't. So do you know if I can use my other modded 3ds to try again?

If you did a successful system transfer to the target 3DS, then I don't think you're going to be able to do anything with it for seven days. Somebody correct me if I'm mistaken.
 
You don't need to wait 7 days. As long as you didn't format the target system after the transfer.
  1. Restore the pre-transfer NAND backup on the source system
  2. Verify the hacked save works, if not, repeat that part of the guide
  3. Go to System Settings ->Data Management ->DSiWare
  4. Move the game from system memory to SD card
  5. Move the source SD card onto the target system
  6. Go to System Settings ->Data Management -> DSiWare
  7. Move the game from SD card to system memory
  8. Continue the guide

I assumed OP doesn't have a NAND backup, since he cleared his SD contents without backing them up.
