Hi,

i have a problem with a r4ds pro from aliexpress.

i want to use bl2ck kernel. i downloaded it from Flashcard Archive.

but after booting i got a "LOADING" followed from a white screen on both screens.

I tried the following kernels and every works:

- The old R4DS Pro Kernel v1.50
- A bad (Frankenstein?) kernel with R4i3d.com branding
- TWiLight Menu ++ v27.0.0 with Autoboot


only the bl2ck kernel refuse to work.
i don't find the solution for this problem.

i think it can maybe have to do something with Flashcart Bootstrap, which the bl2ck version for r4ds pro seems to use, because i also can't boot DScraft, for example, with flashcart bootstrap but with one of the working kernels, the game starts.

I would be grateful for any suggestions.

Hmm. That's weird that it's specifically BL2CK it won't boot and everything else is fine. I have it on mine (also bought on Ali) and it boots fine. You are using the r4dspro version of the firmware right? The only other thing I can think of is try formatting your SD card. Maybe there's some old files preventing you from booting.

Ok... Now i'm feeling really stupid... :blush:
Seems it was really the msd card... i take a fresh 128 gb cart, which is working without problems... :toot:

it's still strange, that the non-working card is working with all other kernels :unsure:
