To install boot9strap on your console, we derive your console's unique encryption key. To accomplish this, we use a tool called Seedminer to calculate the data encryption key (movable.sed) for your console.
For information on how Seedminer works, see [this presentation](https://zoogie.github.io/web/34⅕c3).
This method uses a powerful graphics card to perform the calculations needed. A volunteer-run website is used for the purpose of assisting you with this method.

### Section I - Prep Work
2023-06-08 03:35:50 +02:00
In this section, you will get the necessary details from your 3DS that are required to figure out your console's encryption key.

Before following this section:
+ Ensure that you have turned on your console with the SD card inserted at least once to generate the necessary data
+ Ensure that your console is connected to the Internet (you should see a blue "Internet" indicator on the top-left corner of the HOME screen)

1. Power off your console
1. Insert your SD card into your computer
1. Navigate to the `Nintendo 3DS` folder on your SD card
1. Copy the name of the 32-letter folder you see directly inside Nintendo 3DS
+ This 32-letter name is system-specific and will be different for each console
+ If you see multiple 32-letter folders, follow [these instructions](troubleshooting#seedminer)
+ You can ignore the `private` folder if you have it
![]({{ "/images/screenshots/seedminer/id0-example.png" | absolute_url }})
{: .notice--info}
1. Paste your 32-letter folder name into [a document](/images/screenshots/seedminer/text-document.png) you can reference later
+ This folder is known as your "ID0". Take note of this as this guide will refer to it as such later
2023-06-08 03:35:50 +02:00
1. Power on your console
+ Your SD card does not need to be inserted at this point
1. Go to your Friend List (the [orange Face Icon]({{ "/images/friend-list-icon.png" | absolute_url }}) in the top row of your HOME Menu)
+ If you receive an error and are kicked out of the menu, you either must create a new Mii or your console cannot connect to Nintendo's servers (due to a ban or connection issues)
1. Find your Mii profile, then find the "Friend Code" field on the top screen
### Section II - Seedminer
2023-06-08 03:35:50 +02:00
In this section, you will use the Bruteforce Movable website to retrieve your console's encryption key in the form of `movable.sed`.
1. Open [Bruteforce Movable](https://seedminer.hacks.guide/) on your computer
+ If the site isn't working, join [Nintendo Homebrew on Discord](https://discord.gg/MWxPgEp) and ask (in English) for someone there to assist you
2023-06-08 03:35:50 +02:00
1. Enter your console's Friend Code (with no spaces or dashes) into the "Your friend code" field
1. Paste your console's 32 character long folder name into the "Your ID0" field
+ Do not attempt to enter the ID0 manually, as it is easy to make a mistake. Ensure the ID0 is entered correctly by copying and pasting it from where you saved it in the previous section
1. Select "Go"
+ If the site immediately goes to step 4, the website has already correctly processed your bruteforce request. You can download your `movable.sed` file and continue to the next section. You do not need to (re-)add the bot
2023-06-08 03:35:50 +02:00
1. Use the ["Register Friend" button](/images/screenshots/seedminer/register-friend.png) on your console to add the bot's friend code as given by the website
+ If prompted, the name that you give to the friend does not matter
1. Wait for the site to update
+ If it does not, wait a few minutes before refreshing the page once
1. Once the site processes your information, the site will continue to `Step 2: Bruteforce` automatically
1. Wait for the remainder of the process to complete
+ This is usually fast (1-5 minutes)
+ During this process, the bot you added may not show up on your 3DS. As long as the website updates, this is not an issue
+ If you are still waiting after half an hour, join [Nintendo Homebrew on Discord](https://discord.gg/MWxPgEp) and ask (in English) for someone there to assist you
+ If you get "We were unable to successfully complete your bruteforce request. :`(", follow the [respective troubleshooting on this page](troubleshooting#seedminer)
1. When the process is completed, download your `movable.sed` file from the site
+ Keep this file as you will need it in the upcoming page
2023-06-08 03:35:50 +02:00
1. Power off your console
