Hacking 2DS Won't Turn On

[Jiro2]

To use your Gateway, get the arm9loaderhax.bin that Gateway released along with the 4.0 beta (I don't think they released another one with the 4.1 beta) and use it as a Luma3DS payload or boot manager payload (probably renaming it). It is not in the zip file, it's a separate file on the same web page.

There was a workaround needed for using it with the newest version of arm9loaderhax; I don't know if that workaround is still needed.

When I turn on the 3DS, will I be in gateway mode already? Or do I still need to boot into it

If you have it as the arm9loaderhax.bin on the root of your SD card, yes. If you have it set up to boot when holding down a certain button, no.
Also, don't use Gateway CFW as your main.

All I want is for my red card to work.

You still shouldn't use Gateway CFW as your main, this may not be true now, but last I checked, Gateway CFW doesn't prevent NFIRM from being written to, which means an update will kill your a9lh setup. I don't know if this is still the case, but better safe than sorry, I guess?

Is there a way I can make it not my main but still use it

Use this tutorial (http://gbatemp.net/threads/tutorial-using-luma3ds-with-gateway-on-v2-a9lh.431691/), so you will be able to use both Luma and Gateway.
