Note to everyone (09 July, 2009):
Well, I'm back after a long hiatus, but it looks like in my absence someone came up with a much better Moonshell thread. Since my original intent was to localize Moonshell for us Western users, I'll continue to work on translating any documentation Moonlight releases. I will also keep the Lite Pack updated. I had intended to format this thread similar to the M3 Sakura FAQ once I had the time, but Moonshell 2 FAQ does a better job at serving its purpose, making this thread both redundant and obsolete. And KingdomBlade, thanks for picking up my slack pare*!

UPDATE (11 March 2009):
Moonlight has officially stated that he will be including my translation in his next release, Beta 7. He also compiled an English skin, which I've included in the download package, but it's not what I would consider "polished" like the one Toni made for Beta 5. Consider it a temporary skin until Toni finishes his version. Since the Beta 6.1 skin employs new visual elements, skins from versions prior to Beta 6.1 are incompatible with this release. Do not attempt to apply a .skn file from versions prior to 6.1, or MoonShell 2 will freeze.

There's a bug related to the soft-reset function in Beta 10. I've received reports from both people who can and can't use soft-reset. I haven't found the source of the problem yet (soft-reset is also connected with the loading of NDS files).Here's what I mean by thumbnail icon.
2009/03/18 MoonShell Version2.00 beta.8.1
Fixed the problem with loading on EZ4, SC, R4, AK2, AKRPG, SCDSONE.I have updated beta.6.1 again. This addresses a bug where it was conflicting with the mechanism of the memory check, and was not loading on some flashcarts.

This package includes a fix for a fatal bug in which the disk would get corrupted if there wasn't enough free space. Sorry for the inconvenience, but it's a really serious bug so it is highly suggested that you update. For questions about the bug-fixed version of M3 Sakura, please inquire at a licensed M3 vendor (MediaForce Inc., M3 Sakura official homepage, M3 Shop, etc.). Moonlight will not be checking to see that M3 Sakura works. (Either he didn't write that, or he's speaking in third person I've only ever heard girls speak like this in Japan, where it's considered somewhat "normal." ~D3k)
Also, several flashcart firmwares include MoonShell 1.71 in their package, but if you don't use MoonShell (as long as it's just on your card), you won't encounter this bug, so it would be alright even if you just leave it alone. So this is just a quick fix for that fatal bug (no plans for an official release), the extra functions haven't been debugged. If there are any other bugs, I would appreciate it if you let me know. I don't really have any motivation (LOL), I'm really tired.
Currently known list of bugs for my own reference
2009/03/06 Important Info
In MoonShell2 beta.5 (and all versions up to beta.5), there is a fatal bug in which the disk gets corrupted if there isn't enough free space. I must ask that you please stop using it.
Concerning: All applications by Moonlight that write files to the card (except CheckDisk for NDS)How to check your version: Press START while viewing the file list and open the system menu.
The version number is displayed in the red box.It may not be displayed in older versions.
This is a dangerous bug, so I had to hurry to get this message out. I sincerely apologize for any inconvenience I have caused.You can temporarily fix this problem using chkdsk, but if the disk gets corrupted to the point where you can't even format it anymore, please try to force-format the card using a cell phone, digital camera, etc., or use SD Formatter (set "Format Size Adjustment" to ON). 200903071727_moonshl2_fix_homebrew.zip
After installing Beta 6.1, just extract and copy this NDS file to your card and load it.
