Hacking Boot9strap on ace3ds X

[ADerrik1999]

I am completely new to this so please forgive my ignorance. I have been trying to get this to work for hours. I've downloaded the "aos v2.13" zip from the ace3ds site and extracted the 44 files and copied them to the root of my SD (the one that goes in the flashcart, not the one for the 3ds) (and it is FAT32). I am attempting to install Boot9strap following the instructions on 3ds.guide/installing-boot9strap but nothing is working. I get a black screen when I boot up while holding "start", "select", "x", and power".
The only change I made to the instructions was: I had to download a slightly older version (5-22-2017)of safeb9sinstaller.firm because the most recent zip (v0.0.7)didn't include that particular file (included were "Launcher.dat", "arm9.dat", and arm11.dat").
Maybe I copied the wrong files onto my, ace3ds SD card. I am supposed to copy all those files and folders from the "aos v2.13" zip onto the root of my SD, right?

Please disregard this; I got it to work. For anyone experiencing this problem, I just used a third party app to extract the most recent safeb9sinstaller.zip and Lo & behold, the .firm file was there. The problem was that the original software I used to extract it was not extracting all the files.

Glad you figured it out.
