You will need the following files:
zImage
,nintendo3ds_ctr.dtb
ornintendo3ds_ktr(N3DS)
from linux (Linux kernel source tree), can be built from buildroot.firm_linux_loader.firm
from firm_linux_loader (FIRM Linux Loader for the Nintendo 3DS).arm9linuxfw.bin
from arm9linuxfw (implement virtio over PXI for ARM11 <-> ARM9 communications on the Nintendo 3DS console).
Copy them to your SD card and it should look like this:
Root |-linux/ | |-arm9linuxfw.bin | |-nintendo3ds_ctr.dtb or nintendo3ds_ktr(N3DS) | |-zImage |-luma/ | |-payloads/ | | |-firm_linux_loader.firm

Please see the official wiki pages and the tutorial video below.
Uer guide
You need to boot the firm_linux_loader.firm
file, which will in turn load all the generated binaries (zImage
, nintendo3ds_ctr.dtb
or nintendo3ds_ktr.dtb
depending on your model and arm9linuxfw.bin) into memory and boot the kernel.
The default rootfs will ask you a username and password, currently there are no users so you can log in as root
