- If you *still* get a "PM INIT FAILED" error, try using the r19 release of safehax
- If it freezes, just force the console to power off by holding the power button, then try again

Section III - Installing boot9strap
- When prompted, input the key combo given on the top screen to install boot9strap
- Once it is complete, press A to reboot your device
- Your device should have rebooted into the Luma3DS configuration menu
- Luma3DS configuration menu are settings for the Luma3DS custom firmware. Many of these settings may be useful for customization or debugging
- For the purpose of this guide, these settings will be left on default settings

At this point, your console will boot to Luma3DS by default.

- On the next page, you will install useful homebrew applications to complete your setup.
