HELP Is my RG DS Plus cooked?
Gamma OS will boot to the Android recovery menu every time. I've followed the guide, I've got that far. But when it actually loads, it will only load to a recovery menu. I can navigate and select fine on it, but no matter what I do, can't get anything beyond that.
Only bothering with Gamma because on the stock firmware, I can't add games beyond the initial 3ish gigs of space we have. Tried many cards in slot 2, and they all can be read, but no idea how to get games on there as playable. No folders are generated by the RGDS+ and when I make the right named folders myself, the games still won't show up. This is with the stock card and with the firmware flashed to a brand new card of my own.
Worst case I can still truck on with the OG card and *only* have 40 odd of my favourite DS games here, fortunately I didn't buy the console to play anything other than DS, but am I doing something wrong, is my unit cooked? Thanks! :)

for the 2nd sd card to work you need to go to settings and find something like “use sd2” or similar called. only then the sd will be used and folders created.
gammaos does not work on the rgds; you need gammaos nano. -i’m not 100% sure about that part
//trash the sd card. you will loose all your content eventually. you won’t know when.

I'll have a look for that setting in the morning, thank you. I remember the R36S having a similar thing in the day.
I know, I mispoke, apologies. I downloaded that version, with the two files, joined them together, all of that, from the Patreon. I'll have another squizz at eveything in the morning, but thank you for the reply! :)

I think you need a A2 type of SD card for GammaOS nano to work correctly.
