Can anyone do an ELI5 explanation of this line at Atmosphere's github?

9.0.0 introduced an dependency in FS on the USB system module in order to launch the SD card.
  • This means the USB system module must now be launched before the SD card is initialized.
  • Correspondingly, the USB system module can no longer be IPS patched, and its settings cannot be reliably mitm'd.

Does this have something to do with sigpatches to launch games?

Am at the step 'sending a payload' on this guide: https://switchgui.de/switch-guide/user_guide/emummc/sending_payload/

Has anyone completed this step for Mac?

What you need
  • The latest release of fusee-interfacee-tk
  • The latest release of Hekate
  • A USB-A to USB-C cable (or a standard USB-C cable if your computer natively supports USB-C)
Instructions
  1. Download and run the payload injector (if you are on Linux, you will need to run this program as root or use sudo.)
  2. Connect your Switch in RCM to your PC using the USB cable
  3. Wait for your Switch to be shown as found in the injector
  4. Press Select Payload, and navigate to and select your hekate_ctcaer .bin file
  5. Click Send Payload! to launch Hekate
Please let me know what to do.

Also, if you could take a look at these screenshots and tell me weather my. directory is looking correct or not:

Thank you.

I used bootcamp

Looking for suggestions. I want to go online and have a clean nand backup on 6. Is there a way to upgrade my clean nand to 8.1.0 instead of being forced to jump to 9.0 after i restore the clean nand? Specifically looking for a clean way of doing this to prevent a ban or someone to let me know if 9.0 is ok to stay on (non patched switch, dont care about fuses). I could potentially downgrade my emummc once setup to 8.1.0 or stick with 9.0 if its fully supported now. Just worried about support for 9.0. Any ideas?

two separate things

sigs are the keys (make sure you have the latest)
the modules are how the system reads (this is for developers to re-write)

Sorry if covered but I couldn’t find it anywhere else.

I have a Switch with SX OS and would like to transfer two saves over to a new Switch Lite, is it possible without updating OFW? (I use emunand if it helps) I don’t care if Sx unit gets banned (but it hasn’t been yet) but unsure if to create a Nintendo account and use it on the old Switch or the new one, or both?

A simple (for you, not for me) question:

i got a 256 sd card to use and i format with minitool partition wizard a first partition of 30gb in fat32 and leave the rest in raw. I do this for using emummc option (as a lot of guides on internet says) but the games, installed through goldleaf & goldtree, are still storing in this little partition of 30 gb.

Is there a way to put them in the ~200gb second partition? Seems weird to have a big sd and then use only 30 gb...

the 30 was unformatted 16mb unallocated and the rest is fat32

I recommend setting up emuMMC first then restoring your BOOT0/BOOT1 and eMMC raw GPP

Ok, I will make first emummc, but do I need to downgrade with ChoiDujour or I can restore/downgrade backup with stock firmware from Hekate payload, I think I can do that because I update this with choidujour?

I'm askingt make sure, thanks a lot :)

I just picked up a unpatched switch running 4.1.

I have a RCM jig and 128GB MicroSD on the way coming tomorrow.

I have a Mac and an Android phone.

Could someone point me in the direction for a good tutorial to follow if I'm not missing anything?

Also I know in the FAQ it says that all firmwares are fine but the switch is asking me to do a system upgrade to 9.0 which it seems like there isn't CFW running properlly for it yet. Should I avoid going online/updating for awhile? Will I need to update either way to mod it?

So is it "safer" using NSPs on offline emuMMC? (atmosphere) I dont go online in the partition at all. I only use online in clean sysnand. Or Am I not doing others are to avoid that ban?

Hi tempers just getting started to get my new switch hacked. Creating the SD setup may i select the signature patches ES ACID from the options displayed at the setup, it seems that this option is not on by default when selecting the KOSMOS bundle or is there a better option for those? are we needing those to be able to load our NSPs? are there or after there other must options i should be adding to it ?

I just stopped playing my switch last year, but i already had it hacked. I bought the new link's awakening remake and i want to play it but have no clue what to do about the old hacks. The switch runs official firmware 5.1.0, and this loader hekate ctcaer mod 3.2 , with autoRCM enabled. It's possible to preserve the hacked system and update to a newer/more stable hack version, if not, how i can go ahead and restore everyhting to factory settings safely. So much time has passed that i don't know where to even start without damaging the system.

All my games are cartbridge based, before i had 2 different versions of the 5.1 FW installed, one that did allow me to run carts and one that didn't is still possible to do this? From hekate launch 2 different FW, one that still reads carts and the other CFW (or this issue just presens itself when someone wants to play backups).
