The payload is invalid or corrupted

[AJBauer92]

Every time I try to start boot9strap from the Luma chain loader it says:

An error has occurred:
The payload is invalid or corrupted.
Press any button to shutdown

That's because boot9strap isn't something you chainload into. It's what you install to the system and it loads luma. The fact that you can load luma and select payloads means you already have Boot9strap installed and you're trying to do something you shouldn't. Why are you trying to do this?

If you have A9LH and you're wanting to update, then follow this guide carefully. Read every part, don't skim through it. Those who skim tend to mess up and brick their systems, and they blame the guide for their own failings. https://3ds.hacks.guide/a9lh-to-b9s

My 2ds shows the same thing, except I'm trying to open gm9.(https://3ds.hacks.guide/finalizing-setup)

Did you found a fiw to this ?

I have the latest GM9 B9S and Luma3GX Loader, after an hour I can't figure out what to do to access again GodMode9 from the bootloader.

This happend right after update GM9 ( but reverting to previous version doesn't solve the problem

I completely forgot this thread existed until I got an email just now. My 3DS is fully homebrewed and has been functioning perfectly for years, so I guess I fixed it. Unfortunately, I don't remember what I did. But if I had to guess, I'd say I just missed a step somehow.
