So I flash the image to an SD Card with Etcher (or dd) and then just run the exploit and it should boot to Lakka?
If you use Painless Linux to boot Lakka on your switch, yes.
It doesn't care because if you flash the image to the SD Card, it will be a Fat32 (boot partition) and a EXT Partition (Lakka).
Yep. I knew something was gonna go wrong. So, I'm booting Lakka, and this error pops up:
"Checking layout... \[ 74.347864] SError interrupt on CPU0, code 0xbf000002 -- SError"
EDIT: Nvm. I retried and it booted up. Kind of. It's stuck on a black screen.

If you boot Lakka up for the first time, you need to boot it twice.
At the first boot, it resizes your Lakka Partition so it can use the whole Space of the SD Card. After that, your switch will be reboot into RCM.
After that, your Lakka will boot normally.
The first time it got stuck on the error I posted. Now if I boot again, it displays some text (last message being something about a XORG server?) and then hangs on a black screen.
So I get it to boot consistently now, but every time I do, the right side of the screen and the icons are all black and glitchy and the joycon don't work at all, neither attached nor detached?

Delete the .config/retroarch folder of the storage partition. Do it from your PC or over SSH stop retroarch, delete the folder and restart it
Thanks for your help! I re flashed the image in the meantime and that seems to have helped. It now runs properly.
For all of you that dont want to use google, such as @Phenj among MANY OTHERS... which is a little sad in 2018.
Lakka is basically a linux distro with RetroAarch in mind, basically it just boot directly into retroarch.
For people who dont like / know how to google, you can just click here: http://www.lakka.tv/doc/FAQ/
This release also include the common bugs found on any other distro, starting with battery decalibrate.
weight?
"Wi-Fi fix, Joystick and touchscreen support pushed. Touchscreen is garbage now, I've got to calibrate it properly."
Thanks, I haven't been monitoring the thread that deep. Must have missed that post.
Thanks, anyways.
