Installing boot9strap (Browser)

For support in English, ask for help at Nintendo Homebrew on Discord.

If you appreciate this guide, I accept Donations through PayPal or Bitcoin.

If you have already hacked your device before and have a EmuNAND based CFW setup, this guide deals exclusively with SysNAND and you should follow all instructions from within or applying to SysNAND. Note that the terms EmuNAND and RedNAND refer to slightly different implementations of the same concept.
