nds-bootstrap Pokemon White freezes when I try to save the game

when I go to save the game it freezes

Twilight Menu++ 27.18.0 ndsbootstrap 2.9.0

Sometimes when I try to save it, it doesn't freeze, but 90% of the time it does.

Try updating to v2.9.1. If the issue persists, try downgrading to v2.8.3.

I updated to 2.9.1 and the freezing continued. I tried downgrading to 2.8.3, saved the game twice in a row, and freeze on the third time.

Is the game being run from a flashcard, or the DSi/3DS SD card slot?

DSi SD card slot

DSi SD card slot

Something might be wrong with the SD card then, since this is not a common issue for other nds-bootstrap users. Try reformatting the SD card here: https://dsi.cfw.guide/sd-card-setup.html

I saw in a Reddit post that version 0.71.2 of ndsbootstrap would solve the problem of crashes when saving, and when I downgraded to that version the problem was solved.

So reformatting and checking the SD card for errors didn't fix your issue then?
