[Feature Request] Boot slots should be tried in order instead of failing when the first one fails. #3

Similar to how boot9strap checks sdmc:/boot.firm, but can fall back to nand:/boot.firm if the first one fails. I accidentally moved my boot.firm off of my SD card instead of copying it, and I was surprised to see it didn't fall back to the copy on CTRNAND. This is with the first two slots being configured to autoboot, slot 1 being sdmc:/boot.firm and slot 2 being nand:/boot.firm of course.

They should fail in order, but only for autoboot slots. I noticed you should have set it correctly, but can you recheck this?

Cuphat commented 6 years ago

Yeah, as far as I can tell it's all configured properly.

Okay, looks like that one was my fault. Can you try this build? https://f.secretalgorithm.com/GknoG/fastboot3dsv1.0-beta-12733574.7z

Downside: the updater will not accept it, I can't sign these builds. For now, you'll have to install in GM9. Or just chainload it. We may think about a better way to provide test builds.

The test build works fine.
