Where to find the alpha version?
You don't. Xenon++ left the scene and took all of his stuff with him. The only redistributable stuff are the folders:
QUOTEarm7
bootlib
libfat
libprism
xenofile
Xenofile has to be verson 0.70b or above.
What? He replied to my question in a similar thread like this and said that DSTwo support is in alpha and works with inilink, I'm just unaware of how to set it up.

I just followed your step by step installation and it worked great, but when i went back to copy the guide to my txt file.... the post was edited...

Anyway you can pm me that post before the editing?

Well, if you explain what you have already done, we can help you finish setting it up (just make sure you don't delete ANYTHING and hope that you have everything you needed from Xenon...).

Thanks JP for trying to help...

I already moded my NDSi with AK2i + coverflow...

I just needed the instruction just in case i reformat my sd card.

Here it is again without any xenon++ files...

credit go to Mantis41...

Ok: You have 1.8.0 working so I can shorten the instructions.

1) download akAIO 1.8.1
2) Extract and rename the akmenu4.nds to akmenu.nds also make another copy of this file and rename to akaio.aio
3) Put the files you just made, akmenu.nds and akaio.aio, and the /_aio folder onto the root of the SD card
4) download DScovered
5) place the files akmenu4.nds, dscovered.nds and the /d_system folder from the \DS folder in the DScovered archive to the root of your SD card. (you should already have this)
6) download moonshell2, I like the Child Zwai Edition but its up to you which one you use.
7) Run the auto extract and the copy the extracted moonshl2.nds and /moonshl2 directory to the root of your SD.
8) download Xenon++ archive
9) copy the files from the /moonshl2 and /d_system folders in the archive to exactly the same locations on your SD card. Replace files if needed, extlink.dat should be the only file that asks to be replaced. (you will not need anything else from this archive)
10) Run dscovery.exe from the PC. Make sure you choose akmenu.nds and moonshl2.nds before you update the card as this will give you access to akmenu and moonshell from the coverflow. You can also update the covers for these two files, I have included covers at the bottom of this post it is also a good idea to double click and rename them or they will show up as . in the coverflow.
11) Run up the DS. Go to options and change the loader to loader_extlink.
12) Everything should now work. Just remember if you want to run akmenu hold down the B key or it will get stuck in a loop.

Hi everyone - I need some help please..

I had DSCovered working with AKAIO 1.7.1 and had no problem at all until I just tried to update to AKAIO 1.8.1. I don't have moonshell or anything like that - it's pretty straightforward I think but this is driving me crazy - when I select a game to play it boots me to the AKAIO menu where it says "MicroSD card" and has a pic of the folder there.

I've read a bunch of pages and have tried more than a few things but can't seem to get it to work on 1.8.1. (I haven't tried 1.8.0)

Is this a simple solution I'm just missing? Any advice would really be appreciated - thanks a bunch guys!

You need to somehow find the loader_extlink.nds...though getting it now is kind of...hard.

Thanks so much for the quick reply - I wasn't sure if that was something that I only needed if I had moonshell - it was mentioned in a post a page or 2 back.

Hmmm - so that is the only way to make 1.8.1 and DSCovered work? That would really stink if i had to stop using DSCovered. What a bummer!

Lmaol, Do you actually believe that?

Maybe more believable if he says that someone hacked his account and used to post as him...

Translation talks about some file... xyz file that is used in some jp os (platform)...

There is always more than what meets the eye...
Anyway... its xenon++ decision as post his files or not... gravy train doesn't stop there...

Is there any program that does this same thing that I can use with the AKAIO 1.8.1 and future firmware?

I like all the cover pictures .......

I see in spinal_cord signature that DSCovery has support for Supercard DSOne. I could not get it to boot the games; black screen after the games are selected. I only see options for loader like ysmenu, wood, and etc.... but no Supercard loader. How can I get DSCovery to work in DSOne?

YSMenu is required, but the installation is kinda hard due to lack of inilink (nds.ysloader.nds requires special things).

Fixed -_-".

Even if he DID reconsider...he still doesn't have a working DS anymore, so there isn't very much testing he can do himself.
