My switch is unpatched, i have put all the required atmosphere files on my SD card, the SD card works fine when booting switch normally, however when I try to inset the payload, i get this message . Fatal Error, failed to initialize the SD card: Press Power to Reboot. ( note I have replaced the SD card slot and bought a new SD card) ..not sure what's the problem. anyone can help? I'm running firmware 10.2.0

This is nothing wrong with the cfw it's just your switch not reading the sd card I recomend trying a different sd card if that doesn't work just get the port repaired

Thanks alot, it turned out the SD card connectors has a missing pin, I have fixed the port only in order for it to read the card but not boot on atmosphere and sold it.
