Hey bluelaserman, I linked your mini-guide to my guide in the faq section. Even though it's running ysmenu as secondary firmware, at least M&L:BIS works.

Go through the guide and make a YSmenu, put it onto your micro sd card, and try it out?

I did but it doesn't work...
the problem with the r4 ultra is that it's not r4 compatible and is not fully akecard comptaible so it leaves us no choice yet but to ait for a firmware upgrade from r4ultra.com which won't come anytime soon I presume. I just need to know if someone was actually able to run ysmenu on a r4 ultra and how!! every solution I read led me to a ysmenu with a dldi unsupported screen or with a green loading frozen screen... I just don't want to buy another card and then find out after that there was a solution.. Also I'm not sure but maybe that card is still supported by it's team.. maybe!!!

WOW! VERY NICE! But at Step 11 : "11. Open the english folder and take everything out of there, and put it in the YSMenu folder. Then delete the eng folder."
There is no english folder in the YSMenu folder?! oO

Read step 8.

To avoid confusion, might I suggest in step 9 to say, "extract the contents to the YSMenu folder".

Are you sure your R4 is real. Whats the box / flashcard say its called?
In your Micro-SD card, does it have files:
_system_ (Folder)
moonshl (Folder)
_DS_MENU (.dat file)
_DS_MENU (.sys file)
_DS_MSHL.NDS (.nds file)

If you have any other files in your card, please state them

Also, make sure you KNOW if your r4 is real or fake. I had one instance where a friend of mine thought he had a clone and followed the steps for clones but his was real.

don't have any moonshell things and no _DS_MENU(.sys file) and the flashcard says R4 Revolution for DS (NDSL/NDS)
