Hold (A)+(B) while turning on the DSi to bring up unlaunch filemenu. Then try booting from the list:
  • hiyaCFW → hold (SELECT) immediately for HiyaCFW configuration.
    • make sure to tick (x) Autoboot title
  • TWiLight Menu++ (most things should work when directly booting into TWiLight Menu++ and it boots faster)
If neither of these two work select Launcher from the list (should be the first bootable entry). This will at least allow you to boot into SysNAND and use the DSi.

Other things to try:
  • check the SD for defects and/or try a different SD
  • use HiyaCFW-helper again
  • fill the SD with any files or garbage data until less than 2GB are free

What I did was just resize the main partition to be exactly 2 GB and it worked no problem.
Yes, this does also work perfectly if you are sure that you don't need more than 2GB.

The four pokemon games black|white (1|2) alone take almost 1GB (trimmed).

That worked fine for me.
Thank you.

I mostly just use a flash cart for games in general and only use the CFW for homebrew, I also did try the DS Game Forwarder tool for DSi and it works but with one problem, since it uses ndsbootstrap, not all games are compatible with it, also the flashcarts that I have tried out all had almost near perfect compatibility.
