Lakka failing to boot.

[steve_fox]

i have been trying to get Lakka working but cant.

You stick the folder named Lakka in the root of the SD card right?

I have the ini in the correct folder and get Lakka in the more config options tab in Hekate but when i try and boot it i get the red text that reads 'No mandatory secmon or warmboot provided/ Failed to launch HOS/'

All other setups are working fine, SFW/CFW/Android, its just Lakka, any pointers please?

Do you have the latest hekate release?

No idea what the latest version is, whats on my Switch probably a year old, its on 5.7.2

Lakka wont boot unless you use the latest hekate, 6.0.4 as of now.

Thanks

I have forgotten everything i did when i modded my switch, it was ages ago and ive not done any changes to it since, is its a process that wont break my current CFW setup or will i need to re do everything, ive forgotten so much, im pretty much a noob again lol.

Couple of other things, im running a trinket M0 for payload pushing and my atmosphere is 1.3.2 i think, i have 14.1.1IAMS1.3.2IE as my system version in my CFW, do either of these need to also be updated or can the be left alone and just Hekate updated?

Just Hekate. As it boots to another OS, the amtos and fw versions don't matter.

I was not sure as although i knew Lakka was entirely separate from Atmosphere and an O.S in its own right, i didnt know if updating Hekate to the latest would affect Atmosphere compatibility and if all should be updated.

I have updated Hekate and Lakka is booting now, thankyou!
