Hi all!
So I am happily playing all the newly installed nsps on my switch (all small games), but there is one last thing I am having trouble with: installing the big nsps via tinfoil USB install, because I only have a mac.
I am running atmosphere 0.8.1, with FW 6.2.0, on a 200gb sd card formatted to fat32.
My macbook air is running OSX El Capitan 10.11.6.
I have installed libusb via terminal, have Python 3.7 and have downloaded the usb_install_pc.py file.
When I go into tinfoil usb install on my switch and connect it to my mac via usb, it says my usb is ready, but when I type the command 'python usb_install_pc.py <nsp location>' into terminal on my mac, I get various errors, most commonly '[Errno 20] Not a directory' or 'syntax error' or 'command not found'.
Nevercholt has a great youtube tutorial on the usb install, but nothing for Macs.
I have searched long and hard for any substantial information on this and am coming up very short. Would anybody be willing to provide any clear, step-by-step instructions on how to do this for an absolute novice ?
If we get a good process here that is easy for dinguses like me to understand, it could also become a really handy sticky for the forum too?
Let me know what you think guys! Also if you've spotted something blindingly obvious above that I'm missing, feel free to point that out too~
