Actually, if you used redNAND, aren't your OTP and seeprom already dumped ? If not, you cannot use another console's Seeprom, since it is unique to every console.

It's actually in the raw SD Card's partition.. so he needs to use sdio_nand_manager(https://github.com/dimok789/sdio_nand_manager/releases)

Thought of that for one moment, but I said to myself "nah, it should be at the root".

Yes, it is 512 octets in fact ^^.

 

[GrandZeldaGamer]

Never heard of octets as a measurement of file size but ok

 

[sp3off]

"It is recommended to use a clean USB and format it for this process. The installer is expermintal and may corrupt the file system."
