And maybe copy DS_core.bin on the root.

Yes, DS_core.bin and the DS folder are on the same level. I just reformated the card to be sure, but still no luck. I'm on Mac so I used this guide for setting the cluster size https://www.reddit.com/r/3dspiracy/comm ... llocation/.

I added the DS_CORE.BIN inside the DS folder as well but it's still not working.

I'm using the disk that this guys suggests in his guide; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sAX-_Vzq6mg&t=279s
It's DreamShell 4.0 RC 4 + Boot Loader. Are you using another one?

I use a SanDisk Ultra SDXC 256G 100mb/s. Works flawlessly.

Sorry, I see I misread your comment. Thought you were asking about my SD card. I use this card reader https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005005 ... f19cQtz7L6. Its a Bitfunx DC SD TF Card Adapter Reader V2. Are you using a different one?
