As you read thru TX's announcement below, you will quickly see that is jam-packed with all the features you have been requesting recently like SD EmuNAND and USB Homebrew, so check it out below:
Your favorite superheroes from Team Xecuter are back with another SX OS update.

In v2.3 beta of SX OS we have some exciting new functionality that you, the community, has been requesting a lot. As you know, we value your feedback and support.. so your wishes are our command!

Let's have a look at the changelog:
  • SD emuNAND support
    Since the introduction of our emuNAND feature we got a lot of comments about our initial decision to make the emuNAND data live on the actual system NAND. After lots of hard work we are happy to say we now have a workable solution for storing your emuNAND partition data on your microSD card. This has the upside of not using up any space on your Switch. In order to use the new microSD emuNAND system you will *not* have to format your microSD card. Simply enter the TX boot menu by holding Volume-+ while powering on your switch. Head into the options menu and select emuNAND on the left. Users of our existing emuNAND solution will see an option to migrate their existing emuNAND data. The migration process also cleans up the old emuNAND from the system NAND. Painless! We're interested in hearing your feedback about this exciting new functionality.
  • The 'Emutendo' folder
    In addition to the new microSD emuNAND system we also introduce the 'Emutendo' folder on your microSD card. As you've probably noticed, the Switch saves various data to a 'Nintendo' folder on your microSD card. To completely decouple this data between your Original Firmware and your EmuNAND enabled firmware we have made EmuNAND enabled systems use this differently named folder. If you want keep using your old SD card data with your emuNAND, simply copy/rename the 'Nintendo' folder to 'Emutendo'.
  • Added more directories to scan for content
    By popular demand we have added yet another list of subdirectories that will be scanned on your microSD card (or USB harddisk) for XCI/NSP/homebrew. The directories that have been added are:
    • – /sxos/updates
    • – /sxos/dlc
    • – /switch/updates
    • – /switch/dlc
  • Homebrew menu takeover of any title by holding R
    Homebrew is usually launched from either the TX menu or the Homebrew Launcher menu. Both of these applications run as an 'applet' on the Switch. Applets do not have access to all of the system's memory, and thus any homebrew apps or games launched from here are affected by this as well. The only way to allow full use of the system's memory was to build and install homebrew NSP files. But now we have added another way to give homebrew applications full memory access! You can now hold the (R) button while launching any regular title, and this will launch the Homebrew Launcher Menu. Any homebrew launched from here will run with the same capabilities as a regular Switch game/app. Enjoy!
  • Loading homebrew from USB
    More good news for homebrew lovers. You can now copy homebrew NRO files to your USB harddisk as well, and launch them directly from our SX OS menu.
  • Stability improvements
    Overall stability of many components has been improved. This includes LayeredFS and USB incompatibilities. We have also fixed a bug which would prevent people from launching more than 32 titles.
  • libusbfs update
    Last but not least a small update for developers. We've squashed a small bug in libusbfs pertaining the stat() function. If you had issues with this, grab an updated copy of libusbfs from our website!
The year 2018 is entering its final months. That does not mean we're taking a break from working on our beloved SX OS though. And yes, also those new 'unhackable' consoles are high up on the agenda. Don't worry, we will deliver.

Keep sending your feedback and ideas, they're very welcome.

See you all in the next update!

Clever. Install emunand (in full I presume?) then delete all the files bar the necessary ones, and just have everything installed to the sd card.

Emunand honestly has me considering setting my nand back to stock, updating to latest, then getting buying SXOS and setting up EmuNand...... Unless a free solution comes out real soon, I honestly might fold.

The previous (internal) emunand solution you could create a minimal emunand image (down to 2GB iirc) and it was quick.

How can one set Nand back to stock. Or at least the closest to it?

If your SD Card is deleted then you can't restore it with a NAND backup. Even that has its limits.

--------------------- MERGED ---------------------------

The Emutendo folder should be a red flag in its self.

So how is it going to accomplish that then, brains? The switch doesn't have 32GB or more ram to buffer everything to ram.

If you click cancel half way through, what do you fucking expect? Unless you can travel back in time, the SD is going to change.

Sorry to break it to you, but it's your fault for not using your brain.

Stick to your decision you spoilt brat.
I expect my emunand on my console to be untouched until the operation is complete! DUH!! Its pretty elementary! ....AND
WOW!!! 32GB of RAM (!!!) Thats the same as my souped up £3000 imac pro!!! Your right ... i'm the one who doesn't know what i'm talking about!!
Sorry to break it to you ... but you should really start with an abacus ... before general math ... before even attempting to discuss anything regarding computer science!

Why Emutendo folder should be flagged? Last time "Emunand is stored on Nand should be a red flag" then now Emutendo folder. Sorry but I don't get people as Emunand is for offline purposes or online in stealth mode and 90dns. I've been using Internet on Emunand with the combo stealthmode+90dns for patched youtube and lan-play. I'm still on the eShop.

Because it's just another folder on the SD Card that has the potential to erase anything. Want me to explain further?

I shake my head. I really fucking do.

32GB = Size of emunand
32GB = Size of real NAND.

With me so far Prof Hawking?

The files have to go somewhere.

The switch has 4gb ram. However you cut that cake, you cannot squeeze a 32GB emmc nand into 4gb of ram.

You want to transfer your sysnand to emunand without the SD card being touched until it's complete?

You REALLY expect SD card to be untouched?

You need an abacus, son.

And some crayons.

Does emunand work on fat32 sd cards? mine is exfat but if emunand files are split I assume fat32 would work just fine.

"32GB = Size of emunand" ... 'fraid not. Maybe double check that bud. I really do despair. However, by all means continue embarrassing yourself! I'm enjoying this!

Then Nintendo will flag their customers for just create a folder and name Emutendo.

I'm in a group of 100+ hacked Switches installed sx's emunand. None of them get banned.I will update banning status here if there's any.

You don't recommend sx os, fat32 or exfat?
Using the emunand. However I also don't recommend SX OS in general but you do you.

That and (since TX didn't make a partition for some reason I hope garyopa explains.) It can also delete everything for as something as simple as a homebrew crash.
