Hacking Homebrew formatted switch to fat32 now nothing works

[12_doctorwho]

more specific when I formatted my exfat sd card to fat32 and yes I did put the files in when I boot into Hekate cfw or ofw I can't boot anything up any fixes?

First format your card on your computer using SDFORMATTER https://www.sdcard.org/downloads/formatter/sd-memory-card-formatter-for-windows-download/

Then use h2testw to test your sd card

https://www.heise.de/download/product/h2testw-50539

Then follow the hacking guide (https://switch.homebrew.guide/) to create a new emuNAND and a new installation of Atmosphère and Hekate (if you like) DOWNLOADING NEW RELEASES from his corresponding GitHub repositories
Install sig patches and try to install and run any NSP.


Then when all works fine. You can restore your backup and try again

well I formatted my sd card with aomei and I did test my sd card so i don't think that works

What was your test result, also was the card empty when tested?

 

[impeeza]

Do all the steps believe me you only lost the test and sure will works IF you follow all steps

yes the card was empty

 

[Hayato213]

yes the card was empty

At this point it doesn't hurt to start from fresh since you don't know what was your error, you need to know what the error was pointed at to be able to fix it, should specific the card also, the h2testw test was to test if your card was bootleg or not, may as well specify your card also.

Why not try a vanilla atmosphere build you don't need fss0 build like deepsea, sdsetup if you learn to do your own,

https://gbatemp.net/threads/how-to-hekate-chainload-vanilla-atmos.563255/

Im on FAT32 and no problem with vanilla atmosphere, I do remember some people did get problem with sdsetup on fat32. Perhaps problem with the files they created. Remember to read Atmosphere 1.0.0 changelog to understand the change of fusee-primary and fusee secondary to fusee and package3.

I highly recommend. All links to authors githubs / files in description. Confirmed working for everyone.

Im not saying it is bad, since the video is new, but video would get outdated, that why we have written guide.

yeah, generally the video tutorials are outdated when published, think 1 or 2 years later.

Hello, When you put Hekate on the SD and inject the payload, do you are able to boot to NYX? (pressing VOL - when injecting payload)

secondary question what does the switch format your sd card to when you use the switch to format
