If you scroll to the right, you'll see who tested the ROMs.
I got most of what's said as working/not working from here: https://github.com/ahezard/nds-bootstrap/issues
Try changing the BOOST_CPU option.

 

[BARNWEY]

Alright, thank you for the info. Another question, why does it say "?????"

Does it say to not run it off an sd card? If you press A, do you get stuck on thisinitfat...?

Doesn't say.

I've gotten that too. I've gotten both errors, even though I think the guru meditation error is from trying to run a non supported rom...

If it's an instant red guru meditation error right after choosing the gba brew, it's missing part of the emulator core files. (the .loader ones that go in ichflyr4igoldgbaemu folder). default data/prefetch/undefined handler vector) is the default set up at hbmenu.

if it's a black screen exception guru meditation error could be data abort/undefined/anything else, it's .loader part problem, which is either unsupported file or dldi problem.

.loader is much the same renamed .nds file with an usual dldi section fwiw

Alright, thank you for the information

People are trying to get gbaemu4ds to work and I'm just sitting playing using Virtual Console to play GBA games.

It provides helpeful information to improve bootstrap's dldi.
Also gbaemu4ds will by great if in a future bootstrap gets ported into DSi.

does the boot trap boot any retail games at all but crashes or hangs

none at the moment, unless their forwarders I think

Please, don't do this again.

No it flashes the current game cart in with flashcart firmware.

I guess it's not possible to switch to NTR mode within a DSiWare exploit, then?
Otherwise there'd be nothing stopping it working on the DSi now.

I really would kind of like to see a CFW for DSi...
