Instructions

Section I - Prep Work

Power off your device
Insert your SD card into your computer
Copy all files and folders inside the /build/<your console and region>/exploit/ folder from the freakyhax .zip to the root of your SD card
Copy otherapp.bin to the root of your SD card
Copy boot.firm and boot.3dsx from the Luma3DS .zip to the root of your SD card
Create a folder named boot9strap on the root of your SD card
Copy boot9strap.firm and boot9strap.firm.sha from the boot9strap .zip to the /boot9strap/ folder on your SD card
Copy SafeB9SInstaller.bin from the SafeB9SInstaller .zip to the root of your SD card
Reinsert your SD card into your device
Power on your device

Section II - Launching SafeB9SInstaller

Reinsert your SD card into your device
Power on your device
Launch Freakyforms Deluxe
In the game menu, select Play -> Camera -> Load a QR code
Select the QR code
If the exploit was successful, you will have booted into SafeB9SInstaller

Section III - Installing boot9strap

Wait for all checks to complete
When prompted, input the key combo given on the top screen to install boot9strap
Once it has completed, press (A) to reboot your device

Section IV - Configuring Luma3DS

Your device should have rebooted into the Luma3DS configuration menu
- If you get a black screen, follow this troubleshooting guide
Use the (A) button and the D-Pad to turn on the following:
- "Show NAND or user string in System Settings"
Press (Start) to save and reboot
- If you get an error, just continue the next page

At this point, your console will boot to Luma3DS by default as long as the SD card is inserted.

Luma3DS does not look any different from the normal HOME menu. If your console has booted into the HOME menu, it is running custom firmware.
On the next page, you will copy Luma3DS to internal memory so that you can boot without an SD card.
