Code dump on my dol loader app

Okay, so I am trying to write a very simple .dol loader that loads my other app pngmove (pngmove runs fine when loaded on hbc) and I am getting a code dump. I don't know how to read code dumps so maybe someone can look at the source and figure out why this is happening, cause I've been looking at this code for about an hour and see nothing wrong. (It is modified from loadmii)

u32 relocateDol (u8 *buffer)
{
        int loop;

                memcpy((void *)hdr->datamem[loop], buffer + hdr->dataoff[loop], hdr->datasize[loop]);

        return hdr->entry;
}  

 
int main(int argc, char** argv){
	// main function. Always starts first
 
	// to stop the while loop
	bool done = false;
 
	// start init() function
	init();
	
	fatInitDefault();
	
	
	u8 *bufPtr = (u8) 0x92000000;

	int size_of_file;
	FILE *fp = fopen("sd:/apps/pngmove/boot.dol","rb");
	fseek(fp, 0, SEEK_END); 
	size_of_file = ftell(fp);
	fseek(fp, 0, SEEK_SET); 
	fread(bufPtr,1,size_of_file,fp);
	typedef void (*Entry)();
	Entry entry = reinterpret_cast (relocateDol(bufPtr)); 
	IOS_ReloadIOS(36);
	//Do clean up stuff, like deallocating memory
	entry();
	
	// start cleanup() function
	cleanup();
 
    return 0;
}

It's probably this line in main: IOS_ReloadIOS(36);

Try changing it to a different IOS (like 58) or having it reload the IOS that was loaded when the app began.

Thanks, but the problem was that my buffer pointer was empty.
