I just got another switch from ebay again.

it have 8 burnt fuses and It would not ever boot up OFW or CFW at all.
only thing I can boot is ubuntu image on my sd card.
I decided to make it dedicated ubuntu switch.
I moved ubuntu sd card from my another switch.
then I re-programmed the trinket mod chip in the switch to autoboot ubuntu.


the whole story is that the seller downgraded from 7.0.1 to 5.1 and had it working for awhile.

Am I wrong to agree with my dude/dudette above? 8.0.1 banned and I'm guessing I've burned as many as possible... 8 or 9?

they also store hardware information (is it a devkit? is the nvidia backdoor enabled? is it a quest system? Hardware revision? Is fuse written enabled? etc) and ipatches ;)

I personally have 9 burnt on my 8.0.1 launch day system, and 5 burnt on my second system on 4.0.1

Is there a benefit to updating sysnand without burning fuses if you use emunand? I don't get what's the point.

9 of the 64 possible fused burnt.
I couldn't resist the urge to update my switch. Due to some dumb decision making in the past I can't get back to 2.1.0 to install coldboot when it will release eventually.
