This method requires a reasonably powerful GPU (any dedicated graphics card made in the last few years) and the ability to use a command line. If you don't know what those are or do not have the hardware necessary, you can ask someone to do this for you at [Nintendo Homebrew on Discord](https://discord.gg/MWxPgEp). You will need to have the following information ready:
+ Your Mii QR code, uploaded directly to Discord (do not take a screenshot or a photo of the image, just send the HNI_XXXX.JPG image itself)
+ Your console's ID0 (the name of the 32-character folder directly inside of Nintendo 3DS - see [this troubleshooting section](https://3ds.hacks.guide/troubleshooting#seedminer) if you have multiple)
+ Your console model (e.g. 3DS, 3DS XL, 2DS, New3DS, New3DS XL, New2DS XL)
+ Your console's approximate year of manufacturing (it may be present behind the frontplate or backplate; if you don't know, just guess - it's not super important)

Pour installer boot9strap sur votre 3DS, nous dérivons la clé de chiffrement unique de votre console. Pour ce faire, nous utilisons un outil appelé Seedminer pour calculer la clé de chiffrement des données (movable.sed) de votre console.

Because we do not have access to the Friends List, we are deriving the first part of `movable.sed` using a Mii QR code instead of by performing a two-way friend exchange.

Pour plus d'informations sur le fonctionnement de Seedminer, regardez [cette présentation](https://zoogie.github.io/web/34⅕c3).

## Instructions

If you are on Linux or macOS, replace `py -3` with `python3` in all commands.
{: .notice--info}

### Ce dont vous avez besoin

+ The latest release of [Seedminer](https://github.com/zoogie/seedminer/releases/latest) (the Seedminer .zip)
+ Any 3.x version of [Python](https://www.python.org/downloads/) installed
  + If you are on Linux, you likely already have Python 3. Check by opening a terminal and entering `python3 -V`. If this returns a version number, it will work for this guide.

### Section I - Préparatifs

In this section, you will set up Seedminer and obtain your console's files that are needed for mining.

1. Extract the contents of the Seedminer `.zip` and move the folder with your operating systeem's name to anywhere on your PC
  + Keep this location handy, as this Seedminer folder will be where multiple other files are placed
1. In the Seedminer folder, hold SHIFT and right-click anywhere in the folder's empty space, then click the option that opens Terminal, PowerShell, or Command Prompt
1. In the command line window, type `py -3 -mpip install pycryptodomex`, hit ENTER, and allow it to install
  + If this command fails with the error `No module named pip`, you must manually install pip. The methods to do this can be found on [this page](https://pip.pypa.io/en/stable/installation/).
1. Turn your console on while the SD card is inserted
1. Open the Mii Maker app
1. Tap the "QR Code/Image Options" button
1. Tap "Save Mii as QR Code"
1. Select any Mii Character (make a new one first if you don't have any), and press "OK"
1. Turn the console off
1. Put the console's SD card into your computer, navigate to the `Nintendo 3DS` folder on the SD, and copy the name of the 32-character-long folder directly inside
  + This folder, known as the ID0, is system-specific. Only one should be present. If you see multiple, follow [these instructions](troubleshooting#seedminer)
  + Once you have the ID0, paste it into a document so you can reference it later
1. Navigate to the `DCIM` folder on the SD card
1. Look for the QR Code, which will be a `.JPG` file starting with `HNI`
  + You may have many other files in here already if you use the Nintendo 3DS Camera app
1. Copy this file to the Seedminer folder on your PC

### Section II - Processing Mii QR and Mining

In this section, you will turn the Mii QR code into a usable file and mine `movable.sed` with it.

1. Open the [editMii](https://zoogie.github.io/web/miiqr/) website on your computer
1. Click on "Import from...", then select "QR Code" and upload the Mii QR code from earlier
1. Click on "Export to...", then select "encrypted (.bin)"
  + This will download a file named `input.bin`
1. Copy this `input.bin` to the Seedminer folder
1. Open the terminal/PowerShell/Command Prompt window from earlier
1. Inside this window, enter the command `py -3 seedminer_launcher3.py id0 <id0>`
  + Replace `<id0>` with the ID0 you copied into a document
  + Do not include the angle brackets
1. Once it completes, enter the command `py -3 seedminer_launcher3.py mii <model> <year>`
  + Replace `<model>` with the model of your console (`new` or `old`) - if you aren't sure, only models with the ZL/ZR buttons and C-Stick are new
  + Replace `<year>` with the year the 3DS was made (you often find this on the backplate) - leave this empty if you aren't sure, in which case it will start from the middle
  + If this fails with an error of `input.bin is invalid size`, remake the `input.bin` using your QR Code. If it ''still'' fails, open a different browser and remake the `input.bin` there
  + The mining process will usually take up to 90 minutes, depending on luck and your GPU's strength
1. When it finishes, a file called `movable.sed` will appear in the Seedminer folder
