question, i have formatted my sd on my og3ds, with emunand9 and i chose rednand , after formatting it, it cloned my updated sysNAND fw.

i have installed a cia on newly created emu and then re-checked sysnand and i do not see the cia there, does this mean i am already unlinked yes?

argh never mind, the gift package pops up XD

guys i used to go through lot of crap just to unlin nands, there is something called tinyformatter , can i use that cia to unlink my nands?

Hum. This doesn't have much to do with Luma, but: yes, TinyFormat is a homebrew app that formats your NAND without formatting the SD card, so it's useful for your particular case.

yes it was, but i will also state for people who would do this, this will have them force to redo the swap process in case they want to use 'updated sysNAND' my sysnand menu went zero blank.

i did the formatting for GW case xD screw them for not being compatible with the best imo. cfw, that is Luma !

Not sure maybe yours isn't made right. Not sure how macs handle txt files or how they encode them but that may be the issue.
Oh wait that's not a mac.... It's just an ugly theme [emoji14]
I will stain your clothes.
You had a byte at the end of your config file that was causing the path changer problems. I'd advice switching to a different text editor.
I'll test a few of them out to see which one doesn't fuck it up. If they all do, I'll just run notepad through Wine.

Sure thing
There was a linefeed at the end of your cfg file. Either you added it and didn't realize or your editor added it automagically.

What's interesting, is that is missing on my end

Linefeed is a new line (you probably already knew that?) See if you can move your cursor onto the next line by pressing down arrow.

Some editors always add a new line onto the end of a file when you save it, I should probably add support for that but I have no idea how to compare a string to a 0x0A in lua...

So it doesn't show up in any of my text editors for Linux. But running Notepad through Wine, it shows up as a blank space under it. Saving it through Notepad, removes the extra bits and makes the file work properly.

Ugh, I guess I'll have to add support for checking it then. The workaround I'd been doing on linux (hex-editing out the last byte) obviously won't work for most people who just want to use it...
