Please stop, if you don't know how to compile it yourself and you are willing to beg in an unaffiliated thread, then you are not ready for this. You are more than likely going to brick your system, then complain in this thread about it.
I want just test the nand boot without sd no more thing i have already shadownand v0.5 i know how to install the stage file

If all you are looking for is something gimmicky like that, then you should wait until it's released
 
KBG is o3ds only, right?
Yup, currently KGB is o3DS only.

While I don't mind compiling, I just rather not, maybe once I get my hardmods done on two//three of my o3DS consoles.

But seriously, once both projects are released, then A9LH won't have that "can't boot without SD Card" weakness, that some people like to throw around.

Off-topic: I see you added one of my posts under your Quotes thingy, I thought that was funny. ^_^ <3 Also, what is this ShadowNAND? Can I bing it? pls hlp noob, and what's this op people like talking about? :P

  1. 1) Shame, guess I'll be waiting for ShadowNAND to be complete

Off-topic:
  1. Np, I thought it was funny too xD
  2. ShadowNAND is basically KBG but with SaltFW for n3ds and o3ds.
However at the moment it's just a glorified a9lh installer which lets you launch from an altstage2 in case something goes wrong when messing with stage2 (for example installing kbg) So I would recommend installing ShadowNAND a9lh before installing kbg. So it's essentially a safemode for if you install a stage2 cfw wrong.

Here's a link to a poll I made which eventually became an information post about ShadowNAND and how to install it as SO MANY PEOPLE WERE ASKING D:
Shadowhand said he'd make an official forum post soon though, to clear up the misconceptions about ShadowNAND as such.

I actually know what ShadowNAND is, was poking fun at the section "That feeling when no one reads your posts" :P

And yeah, people will probably still ask what ShadowNAND is once he gets his official thread up though.

I don't think I'll feel sorry for people bricking while installing ShadowNAND or KGB if they don't know how to read.
 
I'm so sorry o_o How did I not get that...
That feeling when the joke is missed.... ^_^ But let's stop being off-topic. :P

Good on you~! That's how it should be~!

Actually Wolfvak got it working on n3ds, he just needs to push it.
Yay~ I should be getting an N3DS this month, hoping it doesn't come with 11.0. If it does, it's off to a hardmodder! Though it'll still go off to a hardmodder even if it comes with 10.7 and under, I just want to setup A9LH on my own.
 
Sweet. @Shadowhand , the altstage2 will protect me if I pull my battery out and stand on my 3ds three times simultaneously when installing kbg, right?
If you can actually pull that off, I'll be impressed. However, as long as you don't overwrite stage1 and altstage2, it should be fine, yes.
 
If you install it as an altstage2 it should be safe, but I'm taking 0 responsibility if you wreck your shit.
I'm aware, I'm not going charging into installing godhax on my toaster if I haven't checked anything. (I don't want to brick my toast)

And stage2 cfws should only modify the stage2, I'm assuming.
 
Although I don't suggest you doing that because standing on your 3DS while it's installing a9lh payloads might shake some bits loose or end up with extra ones, and that would make you have a very nice 3DownS.

Welllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll. You have to install it like ShadowNAND, except replace stage2 with KGB's thing.

o_o So it does write to stage1?
Maybe I should get a hardmod.

If I'm wrong, remember that I'm not good at not being an idiot okay D:

I have absolutely no idea. I haven't even looked at KGB. I'm not even entirely sure if it's compatible with ShadowNAND as it is.
