    My son has an R4i for his DSi and I don't know what I am doing wrong. I am loading the software on it and when I turn on the DSi it only gets to "Loading....." and doesn't go any farther.

    Can someone help me out? Thanks.

    the kernel and everything is there right? Maybe viewing there website ( http://www.r4i-sdhc.com/indexe.asp ) would be better. Another suggestion is if you have the kernel then you should update to a newer.

    there are many r4i's, which one is it specifically, because there are some that the kernel is outdated, and doesnt work with dsi on the 1.4 firmware

    Yeah and the damn thing said it was corrupt. Bad enough it took forever to download only to find that...The latest one is from May, I believe.

    yeah, that is the bad thing, first try formatting the card then, then put the firmware again

    I got it to work! After reading some posts I discovered more people recommended the acekard..which we also have and I found the files I needed and tried that instead and it works :) Thanks for your help!

    why didnt you just use acekard it better in every way

    Because my son told me the acekard was broken, which apparently it's not. After getting p*ssed off at the R4i, I decided to try the acekard anyway.
