if i remember correctly i powered off by pressing down the power button WHEN the installation was complete and it was rebooting,because i knew if it rebooted it was pointless and it was just black screen as normal.. i don't think it was the reason
with the sd folder i messed a little,changing various arm9loader and payloads,but i always putted the originals back after the test with different arm9loader.bin
for answering you questions,loading arm9loaderhax did had like 2 or 3 freeze during installation on the webpage of the 2ds,then i retried another time and it worked fine,then i shut down manually as i said. i'm 99% that it was complete and it was rebooting itself.
i certanly used the 2.0 installer
i already tried to delete the config from the luma folder before,as i readed in another thread (For information,ths 2ds now can't even do the up+L+R+a trick to recover,just a black screen without even the light coming in life,and of course the blue light led of power)
tried the decrypt9 trick you mentioned,but nada.still black screen. (do i have to put in the name of the "x_D9.bin" the .bin part or just x_D9? i already tied both and nothing)
while i was searching for some answers i seen someone having this "rei" folder that i didn'thad,and i created it manually copying the files the others had in there... so that rei is not a correct installation but a copy of what seemed to be missing
for the luma installation and other files,as i remember, i never downloadedsome latest release,as the were literally from a bunch of days ago,and i wanted the latest files before those super recent ones,because the guide is some months old and i wanted the exact same files to be sure it would run all as expected.
