Required Reading

Afore proceedin', ensure ye 'ave read all o' th' information on ntrboot

This method requires temporary access to a Nintendo DSi that is compatible with your flashcart. This method uses the flashcart to run the ntrboot flasher .nds file on your DSi. This means that your flashcart must support launching .nds files on your DSi's version. See the flashcart table on ntrboot for more information.

Note that in some rare cases, it may be possible fer th' flashin' process to brick a counterfeit flashcart n' render it permanently unusable. This is unlikely, but nevertheless, only original listed flashcarts are supported. To reduce the chance of receiving a counterfeit card, it is recommended that you use a reputable site to buy your flashcart (such as NDS Card).
