Problem:
So I finally got the correct DSi bios files for the melonds for android, I wanted to make it works so I tried to boot it up, first it just boots up as a white screen and just sits there. Then I tried to boot crystal adventures to see if it works, and I got hit with the error below..no idea what to do..

DSiWare games have to be installed through the DSiWare Manager for it to work. To boot it up, you must boot the DSi BIOS and load there as you would on a normal DSi.

At the moment DSiWare Manager is only available in the Nightly builds, and it's still somewhat broken until some patches are merged.

I tried the latest nightly build (you can get this via actions artifacts) for a DSiWare game and had no issues using the DSiWare manager and then booting into the DSi firmware and playing the game.
