Hacking The M3 Quad-Boot

[The Catboy]

the error in the skin is probably the changes in touchpod appearance
Example: there are no seconds in the clock

Possibly, but the Quad-Boots won't seem to load properly for me, which is what I am working on now to figure out why they aren't working

Okay, One question towards this, Hex Boot...

What firmwares does it contain, I ca guess only 4.

Kura
Sakura
iTouch
TouchPod
?????

[Porobu]

Hex Boot Firmwares: Itouch Kaura Sakura (1.12+a and 1.44) Touchpod and R4iRTS

Quad-Boot ver.1 contains Kaura, Newer Sakura, itouch, and Touchpod
Quad-Boot ver.2 (or Penta-Boot) contains Kaura, Newer Sakura, itouch,Touchpod, and iSakuREAL
Hex-Boot contains Kaura, Newer Sakura, itouch,Touchpod, iSakuREAL, and R4i RTS

Alright, I am not sure, what's wrong with the Touchpod, Porobu noticed there is now seconds on this file and I noticed that as well, so I think that might have something to do with it. so I just set the skin by defalt to Skin 2, since skin2 is way cooler than skin 1
I am working on the quat-boots now
EDIT: Sorry for the delays, my M3 Real seems to be suffering some minor technicalities, which is hindering me.
Please bare with me well I figure out what's wrong

Hey is your Sakura in the Temp Sakura FAQ with the 4.8 loaders or just have 4.8 touchpod dual booted with Sakura?

It is a Dual-Boot, you might need to Hold A to start up into Sakura though, right now there is a problem and I am not sure if it's just my end or if the firmware is the problem

 

[Porobu]

in the second post: dualboot with sakura

 

[The Catboy]

There seems to be issues with the latest Touchpod and I mean some real issues, it doesn't seem to work so well on some of my microSD cards, seems to have a corrupt default skin and might corrupt your card, these are the results I have gotten so far and I am working hard to make things work properly, but for now, please just switch over to skin 2 and it should work just fine. And yes There will be a fix on the Quad-Boots, just wait till I get it working

 

[The Catboy]

Alright, I fixed one of the Quad-Boots, Which is the New Tri-Boot + M3 Kaura 2.0 or Quad-Boot ver.1, it's the second one on the list, so that's good.
I am not sure what's wrong with the new touchpod, it appears M3 might have messed up again, not sure still.
I am working on the other Quad-Boot (or Penta-Boot) The Quad-Boot + iSakuREAL, it seems to not want to load the iSakuREAL, I am working on it now to figure out what's up with that. Will post and update when I get it working.
Again sorry for the delays, some technological difficulties are really messing this up right now.

Sorry, I removed the latest Touchpod from the updates, it doesn't work too well and really needs to be repaired before I add it again

Dual Boot, Sakura + Touchpod 4.8x works fine here on default skin

did you also extract the new added files to the firmware that are dated 3/12/2010.. 3/16/2010??

Yes I did and I got the same error each time as well the Quad-Boot doesn't seem to work for me, it tells me when ever I hit the Touchpod for iSakureal, that there is no system file.
I am pretty sure the quad-bot I uploaded now doesn't have that error, it was tested and worked fine for me.

If you could, please upload the working bundle for me, since I seem to be having problems on my end.

 

[The Catboy]

Good news everyone, Xenon++ has sent me his system file that has been reported to work, I shall testing it out right after school (not that it will need any testing) then upload it.

 

[airpirate545]

The system file will be for the quint boot correct? Anyways man I gotta hand it to you, your quad boot is extremely useful, dunno why I never used it before the recent update.

 

[The Catboy]

Sorry for the extreme delay, I was unable to get onto a Windows operated computer at the moment and had to dual-boot my very slow computer with Windows XP, which took far longer than I thought it would, the good news though is now I will be able to update faster since I have windows xp laying around on my computer.

This one should work, but I need to update it

 

[The Catboy]

Alright after hours, I have finally stopped the delays, Quad-Boot (one of them) has finally updated, I will be working on the other firmwares now

 

[The Catboy]

I reuploaded the Sakura File, there is still the skin error in touchpod, not sure why, but I just set the skin to skin 2 again like last time.
This time though by default it will start up on Sakura, just hold A and you can boot into Touchpod and again it's by default English, sorry about that, but it seemed to be the only way right now to avoid the skin error.

I am going to update the Quad-Boot with the Touchpod later, right now I am off to bed. It's way too late
I have removed one of the Quad-Boots due to a bad iTouch update and I am way too tired to fix it, sorry, but I do need sleep and this one yet again was screw up like the Touchpod update.
Sorry everyone about this, will be working on it after I get some sleep.
If anyone knows any fix for these problems please PM me and or leave a comment and no Xenon++ I didn't forget to add your system to the update yet still working on that as well. I had a pretty busy day today.

 

[The Catboy]

Alright, looks like the latest Sakura is good

So I did update it, if there are any problems please make them known, since I haven't gotten one yet.
Sad news with the Quad-Boots though, they are going to be temporarily down till the problems with iTouch is figured out. There seems to a problem where it is loading DS games as GBA games, which then don't work.
Seems to be protected now, I guess we have to wait on this
I will be adding R4i firmware to the Quad-Boot to replace iTouch, the update will be later today since I need to run to school

EDIT: I have added R4i RTS firmware in the place of iTouch.
The Quad-Boots are now up and running again, I sadly didn't get a chance to give them a full run through, so if there are any problems, they will be addressed as soon as possible. There have been a lot of problems with the M3 updates lately.

When using the iSakuReal that doesnt require ram i get the error, "Couldn't find file:
/_system_/_sys_data/R4i.sys "
even though I made sure the file was transferred along with everything else.
