Hacking Upgrade 2ds with rxtools in 6.0 to 9.2

[Altairseven]

A friend brought me a 2ds with 6.0 firm with rxtools so i can set up a9lh for him, checking the plailect guide, it recommends either using rxtools in dev and sysupdater or game update and then downgrade.

Im wondering because i never had to upgrade a console, how safe is the sysupdater way?, is there any chance that it may fail?, or would it be safer to update with a game and then downgrade with pleisysupdater??

The sysupdater way is very safe as long as you follow the instructions exactly. It's not as unsafe as, for example, a downgrade. I've used it every time I've needed to update a console to 9.2. Upgrading to something greater than 9.2 and then downgrading to 9.2 adds unnecessary risk.

Just follow Plailect's Guide restrictly.

thanks everyone for your quick response, I've successfully upgraded to 9.2, now I'll carry on with the a9lh setup.
