Hi all. i just installed HiyaCFW and twighlight++ on my DSi, and boot time is too long i think. It takes 45 seconds on average from power button to twilight menu finish booting. Could it be that im using an old and slow 2 GB microsd card inside a micro/SD adapter card? i have actual SD cards that are faster class and 16+ gb but i read in the guide if its larger than 2 GB it might not work. Or is it not because of my micro sd card? is it supposed to take this long to load?

Hello. :)

You can set your DSi´s Boot behavior in UNLAUCH from HiyaCFW to TWilight:
(I am on UNLANCH 1.8 maybe the Names are a little diffferent when you have Version 1.9)

Hold Button "A" when powering on your DSi and choose at the Top "OPTIONS".
Then on NO BUTTON choose TWLMENUPP (shown as SDMC:/BOOT.ND5) instead of HIYACFW (shown as SDMC:/HIYA.DSI).
Choose SAVE & EXIT and the next Bootup should be faster.:)

You don't necessarily need a 2GB card - you need less than 2GB of free space available. So it might be worthwhile to get a faster SD card at like 16GB or something and then put your files on and create a "blank" file that fills up the space to the point of having 1.99GB left.

Thx a lot.

Gee kids these days are so impatient with their 45 seconds being a very long boot time lol. God help them if they ever get their hands on a old 8bit computer with the games on tape taking 5 to 10 mins to load then when you finish the first level you had to wait minutes again for the next level to load ect ect. :rofl2:

Not true. It works at every interval of two.
