Homebrew boot9strap 1.1 released

[Matalan]

Be careful because my R4 card and GBA injects give me a black screen when on B9S1.1

 

[Bullseye]

I replaced boot.firm with the latest nightly with B9S v1.1 and everything works good. GBA injects, Acekard 2i, 3DS games. I jumped the gun too soon on this one. Next time I'm just going with stable/official releases.

Can confirm x2 latest hourly fixes this.

Sort of, not really.

Boot9strap uses the sighax (vulnerability in the bootloader) but it doesn't run sighax (the launcher from derrek). Instead it work like Aurora's A9LH payload and instead looks for boot.firm on your SD Card and if that doesn't exist it looks for boot.firm on your CTRNAND.

Basically boot9strap is safer and easier to use than sighax. As far as I know sighax doesn't support the NTRCard booting method either.

Sighax from derrek is just an installer. After using derrek's installer properly, and as long as you used Boot9Strap as the chainloader, you will end up with an identical setup as if you used SafeB9SInstaller. That's the only difference. It's just a different installer with less sanity checks.

I don't think so - isn't derrek's run completely from NAND, but b9s gets the payload from the SD card?

Really? I asked when SigHax.com was first released. I think it was in a thread with SciresM replying, but I can't remember exactly.

Doesn't SafeB9SInstaller install the chainloader firm to NAND? And that itself loads Luma from SD?

I've been asking that since the changelog for 1.1 was released. Nobody responded yet. Is the face simply because they list the typical Nintendo release notes of system stability?

If I already installed B9S is it necessary to update B9S to 1.1?

This is already outdated.

Holy Shit. But is it necessary kinda like update A9LH was?

Not yet. The only thing that can use this is the latest Luma nightly but that still has bugs, being a nightly and all.

Why not wait for a real release and not a pre-release?

I thought that was a real release

It has a pre-release tag in orange on the github https://github.com/SciresM/boot9strap/releases.
