Hacking A9LH: Different sysNAND sizes

[Menacer]

Hi,

after downgrading my N3DS to 9.2 I made a backup of my sysNAND. Filesize: 1888MB, so acording to
https://github.com/Plailect/Guide/wiki/NAND-Size
it should be a Toshi nand.

Then, I wanted to create a redNAND on my SD and clone the sysNAND to it.
Now it says the sysNAND size is 1240MB, which looks like Samsung NAND.

I'm a little worried to continue now. I mean the sysnand must have a fixed size, right?
See pictures attached.

The 3ds only reads 1240MB regardless of the physical nand size so that should be alright.

Thanks for the clarification, zoogie.

Thanks for the clarification, zoogie.

For the next time, you can ask your questions in the noob paradise thread, it is stickied (on top) when you visit this sub forum. You can barely miss it. I assure you you'll get an answer

I asked the same question the other week. Seems that it is normal with rednand as it makes the smallest possible partition on the SD Card.

Here's the thread I made:
