This Switch came originally with firmware version 4.0.1. I made a backup of it before using custom firmware, Atmosphere has been used since day one, and the system has been updated through ChoiDujour and AutoRCM (the original firmware remains at 4.0.1 and has not been booted into after Atmosphere was first used.)
The custom firmware currently installed is 7.0.1, and I would like to setup emuNAND. I do not care about the installed games and saves, and would rather start from scratch.
From what I have read, I think that I can
1. restore my original backup using Hekate,
2. then create an emuNAND from this original firmware version,
3. update emuNAND to the latest firmware version using ChoiDujour to be able to play the latest games,
4. reinstall my games and applications.
Does this make sense?
My questions:
- Any precautions about AutoRCM?
Does restoring my original backup disables AutoRCM? Should I disable it before the backup restoration?
- How do I enable exFAT on emuNAND?
My original backup does not support exFAT. This means (I think) that my original emuNAND will not support exFAT either. I guess that I can enable exFAT when upgrading it through ChoiDujour. Will I have to reformat the emuNAND SC card and copy everything back? Is exFAT enabled only on the data partition of the emuNAND? This is, does the system partition of the emuNAND remain in as FAT32 while the data partition uses a different file system?
Thanks in advance.
