a9lh+luma+latest sysnand and no emunand...how can i use my gateway card without losing my luma cfw?
if i put the GW launcher.dat and GW a9lh.bin in the root of micro sd, i can boot GW but lose my luma cfw.

i have edited my post,sorry for that.
Np, All you have to do is put the launcher.dat on the root of your sd and rename the gateway arm9loaderhax.bin to (ex.) up_gw.bin and move it to the luma/payloads folder. (If you deleted your luma arm9 file then put it back.

is your emunand FW on 2.1? If so you'll need to re inject an emunand backup you've made or format a new one. If your sysnand is on 11.00 You could use decrypt9WIP arm9loaderhax.bin to do this then swap the luma arm9loaderhax.bin back when done!

You are not supposed to be getting rid of the whole BOOTCTR entry.

To remove it, just use the following:
Code:
[BOOTCTR9]
screenEnabled = 1
screenLog = 0
fileLog = 0
key_delay = 1000

I personally, just use a splash images and boot animations for most of my stuff lol.

I'm using the arm9 select posted earlier, I cant stand the bootctr boot screen its gross.

Yeah, the config code I gave you removes it. I don't have that problem, I didn't like it either, but it's not mandatory to have that boot screen.

But use whatever works for you, I guess.

I am currently using the gw arm9loaderhax file. Does anyone know how i can use that file as a payload in the luma folder and to autoboot it but still have the option to boot luma on a button?
Personally I like CtrBootManager9. You can set it up to autoboot GW, and display the boot menu by holding a button. You can add any A9LH payloads you want to the boot menu. That way you have less button combinations to deal with, just the one for displaying the boot menu then you can launch whatever you want from there (Luma, Decrypt9, emuNAND9, GodMode9, Uncart...)

You can also add specific button combos to boot specific payloads if you want to, but you don't HAVE to use those button combos, the only thing you really have to remember is the button combo used to display the boot menu. You could for example set Luma to boot with X held, and leave Decrypt9/emuNAND9/GodMode9/Uncart without a button combo set, so they can be accessed from the menu when needed and you don't need to remember all those different button presses for different payloads and which ones are set to which payload. Personally I have trouble remembering that.
