Homebrew [Release] Linux for the 3DS

[RednaxelaNnamtra]

Weird, have you tried with the weston-simple-touch program?

Yes, I first started weston, and then tried the simple touch program. When booting it using the 3dsx loader it works, when directly booting it from a9lh it is not.
Maybe something is enabled by firm, which is needed.

Since this uses brahma can I use it with arm9loaderhax?

Look at the last page

There's 2 arm9 loaders on page 8.

I guess you have started Weston first (/start-weston.sh), then opened the Weston terminal, and typed: weston-simple-touch?

The problem solved itself. I just copied it again to my SD and it worked. I guess it didn't copy one (or more) file correctly. Sorry!

Sorry,
i can't understand what's the process to launch this from aureinand.

I download the payload on page 8, ok, but i can't find the "zip" needed

edit: I'm an idiot:

TL;DR: you need to put the files in a "Linux" folder in the root

Now you can turn off the 3DS by running "poweroff" Reboot is not working yet and you'll see some weird stuff if you try it (so it's better to not reboot for now).

i wonder if rm -rf / works

if coreutils is recent enough no, you also need --no-preserve-root

That flag has been required for quite a few years now, so I'd imagine coreutils would be a fairly recent build. Also, does this come with busybox, or is it possible to install it for this?

dumb question but can we use Linux as a way to run emulators more smoothly

No.

Ok, but will it delete SysNand, Emunand, Linux or all at once?

 

[MasterFeizz]

Ok, but will it delete SysNand, Emunand, Linux or all at once?

For now it will delete none, since it only has access to a ramdisk.

 

[szymon170]

So you can't save anything here, right?

 

[MegAmi24]

Quick question: Wouldn't it be better to use the Circle Pad to move the mouse?

Never thought about that. Sounds cool!

 

[MegAmi24]

I'm used to Windows, can you open anything but weston-terminal?

 

[orangy57]

Hey, I need some help. I want to get this running through A9LH, but I don't know how. There are no tutorials telling me where to put all the files, what button I need to press, or how to set up a file for booing it on startup with a button press.

 

[Allahu_Spooky_Cena]

How do you scroll up and down in the terminal?

@xerpi I need help : My 3DS is on 11.0.0 and I have arm9laoderhax (v2), so I use it on .bin to the payload with down D-PAD.
So, when I click on it on the key to boot it, a black screen appear.

I put zImage and nintendo3ds_ctr.dtb on th eroot of my SD Card, but it dosen't work.
I have Luma3DS for CFW.

This is a problem with A9LH v2. You will need to downgrade to v1 with d0k3's SafeA9LHInstaller (found near the last pages of the Decrypt9 thread).
