The file `boot.firm` is what is launched by boot9strap itself after it finishes loading off of NAND. In this case, we are using Luma3DS by [LumaTeam](https://github.com/LumaTeam/) to patch the device, allowing it to run homebrew software.
It is not recommended to skip downloading any of these applications, as many of them will be used later on this page. At the end of this page, your SD card will be cleaned up by removing unnecessary installation files.
If your **New 3DS** was on version 2.1.0 before following this guide, you should [restore your NAND backup](godmode9-usage#restoring-a-nand-backup) before continuing. This likely doesn't apply to you unless you were following this guide in 2017.
If your previous CFW setup was EmuNAND-based and you wish to move the contents of your EmuNAND/RedNAND to SysNAND, follow [Move EmuNAND](move-emunand) before following this page. If you don't know what an EmuNAND is, this doesn't apply to you.
1. Copy all of the CIA files (`Anemone3DS.cia`, `Checkpoint.cia`, `FBI.cia`, `Homebrew_Launcher.cia`, and `Universal-Updater.cia`) to the `/cias/` folder on your SD card
The screenshots below indicate the minimum SD card layout that is required to follow this page. You may have extra files or folders on your SD card, depending on your previous setup or the method that you followed.
さらなる安全対策として、カスタムファームウェアの追加チェックを行います。 If custom firmware is not installed by this point for any reason, the next section may render your console unable to be hacked without external hardware.
1. デバイスの電源を切ります
1. Hold the (Select) button
1. Power on your device while still holding the (Select) button
1. If the check was successful, your device should have booted into the Luma3DS configuration menu
1. (Start) を押してセーブして再起動します
1. デバイスの電源を切ります
If you do NOT boot into the Luma3DS configuration menu, custom firmware was not installed on your device. Join [Nintendo Homebrew on Discord](https://discord.gg/MWxPgEp) and ask, in English, for help.
In this section, you will temporarily replace Download Play with Homebrew Launcher (which we need to launch FBI). Download Play will automatically go back to normal once you reboot your device.
In this section, you will sync your 3DS internal clock with the actual time and dump the sound firmware (which is necesssary for some homebrew software to use sound properly).
In this section, you will use a script to copy some of Luma3DS's files to internal memory so that they can be accessed, even without an SD card inserted.
1. Copy `<date>_<serialnumber>_sysnand_##.bin`, `<date>_<serialnumber>_sysnand_##.bin.sha`, and `essential.exefs` from the `/gm9/out/` folder on your SD card to a safe location on your computer
1. Delete `<date>_<serialnumber>_sysnand_##.bin` and `<date>_<serialnumber>_sysnand_##.bin.sha` from the `/gm9/out/` folder on your SD card after copying it
- Holding (Select) on boot will launch the Luma3DS configuration menu.
- Holding (Start) on boot will launch GodMode9, or if you have multiple payloads in `/luma/payloads/`, the Luma3DS chainloader.
- By default, pressing (Left Shoulder) + (Down D-Pad) + (Select) while in 3DS mode will open the Rosalina menu, where you can check system information, take screenshots, enable cheats, and more. This can be changed from the Rosalina menu.
- Holding (Start) + (Select) + (X) on boot will make the notification LED show a color for debug purposes. See the [changelog](https://github.com/SciresM/boot9strap/releases/tag/1.4) for a list.
