The true best method is to format a new emuNAND, update it with sysUpdater (that brick only while in sysNAND) and flash it back to sysNAND.
I just had a user brick a 3DS even when using this on emunand (and then flashing back to sysnand). The method you mentioned still results in a brick at the end of the day. sysupdater is completely useless in my opinion now that I know this. I highly recommend everyone stay the **k away from it. The developer needs to get it fixed. There is no way to use this safely with a Gateway and I don't understand why he won't make a workaround for it. The unreleased test app that I got from a different dev used a similar method of installing NATIVE_FIRM that gets along with Gateway. In this case I see the dev's unwillingness to support Gateway users potentially dangerous.
I would recommend you retract that statement or modify it to indicate it will never work with Gateway in anyway.
