Just a quick question. Is it OK that I installed Luma3ds 8.1.1 to FIRM0? It seems to run fine. Will it break anything?
Well for one it's not supported so if you have issues, you're on your own as far as dev support which is a pretty big deal IMO. Quoted from the Luma Github,Just a quick question. Is it OK that I installed Luma3ds 8.1.1 to FIRM0? It seems to run fine. Will it break anything?
OK, Thank You. I didn't know that the Github says that. I was just messing around with GM9 and noticed the "Install FIRM" option. I created a sysnand backup and tested it out. I will reinstall B9S now.Well for one it's not supported so if you have issues, you're on your own as far as dev support which is a pretty big deal IMO. Quoted from the Luma Github,
Luma can now boot on its own as FIRM0/1 (although note this is not recommended or supported at all and we very strongly recommend using boot9strap)"
That and you'll have to reinstall it each time there is a Luma update.

I'll also say that I don't know how well versed you are to attempt things that should only be used by developers (no offense). There is a reason it's not officially supported.
Use at your own risk more or less.
NO problem. At least you made a backup prior, that itself is impressive these days Lol. (Again, nothing personal just speaking in general)OK, Thank You. I didn't know that the Github says that.

Yeah, I learned to make a backup after trying to inject a title.db onto a stock O3DS. I was SO stupid....NO problem. At least you made a backup prior, that itself is impressive these days Lol. (Again, nothing personal just speaking in general)
Hey we're all human we make mistakes. All the more reason to carry an eraserYeah, I learned to make a backup after trying to inject a title.db onto a stock O3DS. I was SO stupid....
Oh, One more question. I am using Luma3ds-4116c1e. Does that do anything different than the normal Luma3ds?Hey we're all human we make mistakes. All the more reason to carry an eraser
That's a nightly, so it's more prone to incompatibilities than the stable 8.1.1 releases. Again, they are use at your own risk and mainly for developers to identify bugs before the next stable release. If you have issues, revert to the stable one.Oh, One more question.

EDIT: It is Luma3ds 8.1.1-4116c1e i think
OK, I just like the way it tells you where it is booting from on the bottom screen of the setup. Example: "Booted From SD via FIRM0" Is there a way to make the stable version do that?That's a nightly, so it's more prone to incompatibilities than the stable 8.1.1 releases.

Well, that's what the nightly is Lol. You'll just have to wait for the next stable release after new commits/ bugs are worked on etc. It's up to the development team when they decide the commits are stable enough to release.OK, I just like the way it tells you where it is booting from on the bottom screen of the setup.

What do you mean by "the difference upgrading to b9s"?I just started playing my 3ds again and I'm still currently on al9h Luma and updated to latest fw. Can anyone tell me the difference upgrading to b9s? So far everything is working great and apparently I missed the great ban wave period back when b9s first came out.
What do you mean by "the difference upgrading to b9s"?
If you mean what is different between the two, B9S cannot be "patched" without a hardware update. (Nintendo would have to take your system and replace some things to "patch" it.)
It really does the same thing, but it executes earlier in the boot. It has some other features, but mostly for devs. I strongly suggest updating from A9LH to B9S.Would I be missing out on any major features? It seems like all my games are working great on al9h, so I'm just wondering what else I would gain from upgrading to b9s other than the fact that it cannot be patched and Luma can update.
