Hi, I'm using Hekate 5.1.4. I want to use the <Launch> option in Hekate but it keeps giving me the following messsage:

"No main boot entries found...
You can use the following entry to boot stock,
or use More configs button for more boot entries
"


I already formatted my SD-card to FAT32 and split the partition into two seperate partitions for emuMMC using TegraExplorer.bin. After that prepared the emuMMC partition using the Hekate Bootloader via Home > emuMMC > Create emuMMC > SD partition. I also enabled emuMMC afterwards and reloaded Hekate. But there's still no option to select between emuMMC (CFW) or OFW.

It's very similar to this issue: https://gbatemp.net/threads/no-main-boot-entries-found.554951/

Here's a visual representation of what I saw BEFORE I posted UPDATE 2:
20190915_124502-jpg.179476

Anyone has any idea why? Thanks in advance!

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

UPDATE 1: so I tried moving the hekate_ipl.ini file inside the ini folder inside of the bootloader folder and that also didn't help. Source: https://gbatemp.net/threads/atmosphere-0-9-4-hekate-ctcaer-v5-0-2-released.548071/page-3 (scroll down to the 13th comment)

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

UPDATE 2: so I added these contents to my hekate_ipl.ini file:
{AtlasNX/Kosmos v14.0.1}
{}
{Discord: discord.teamatlasnx.com}
{Github: git.teamatlasnx.com}
{Patreon: patreon.teamatlasnx.com}
{Pegascape DNS: pegascape.sdsetup.com}
{}

{--- Custom Firmware ---}
[CFW (SYSNAND)]
emummc_force_disable=1
fss0=atmosphere/fusee-secondary.bin
kip1patch=nosigchk
atmosphere=1
logopath=bootloader/bootlogo.bmp
icon=bootloader/res/icon_payload.bmp
{}

[CFW (EMUNAND)]
fss0=atmosphere/fusee-secondary.bin
kip1patch=nosigchk
atmosphere=1
logopath=bootloader/bootlogo.bmp
icon=bootloader/res/icon_payload.bmp
{}

{--- Stock ---}
[Stock (SYSNAND)]
emummc_force_disable=1
fss0=atmosphere/fusee-secondary.bin
stock=1
icon=bootloader/res/icon_switch.bmp
{}

[Stock (EMUNAND)]
fss0=atmosphere/fusee-secondary.bin
stock=1
icon=bootloader/res/icon_switch.bmp
{}

{------- Tools -------}
[memloader]
payload=bootloader/payloads/memloader.bin
{}

[L4T]
payload=boot/coreboot.rom
{}

[RCM-Lockpick]
payload=bootloader/payloads/LockPick_RCM.bin
{}
Now I can finally see the options again. But whenever I press one I get another message named:
"Failed to apply `nosigsck`! Failed to launch HOS! Press any key..."


UPDATE 3 (THIS IS ALSO THE FIX): the issue is fixed. I found this link https://github.com/Joonie86/hekate/releases the guy on GitHub said that version 5.1.4 of Hekate had an issue. He described it as this: "there is an issue with FS patch not being applied by patches.ini for OFW 10.0.0". He released a modded version of the Hekate 5.1.4 payload file. named: hekate_ctcaer_5.1.4_J.bin, the "modded version" he released seems to have fixed the issue. Thanks for the help @pojobrown without your help I wouldn't have been able to solve the issue. :D

Sounds like you missing the hekate ini in boot loader folder.

Thanks for your reply. There's already an .ini file inside the bootloader folder named: hekate_ipl.ini

I cannot find any file named: "hekate.ini" on either my SD-card nor on the internet.
Can you please elaborate on this part?


There's also an ini folder inside my bootloader folder if that's of any importance.

no that should be the right one. copy and paste what is in the hekate_ipl.ini
The hekate_ipl.ini file contains the following:

[config]
autoboot=0
autoboot_list=0
bootwait=0
verification=1
backlight=100
autohosoff=0
autonogc=1
updater2p=0

Everytime I put it inside the ini folder, and restart Hekate, the file gets generated again at the root of the bootloader folder. The file name also ends with .ini btw.

I also updated my post with a picture. Please take a look at it.

Add this below what is already in your ini file. See if this has the options to boot. Note I am at work and on an iPhone so I can give you my ini file contents when I get home. If you don’t have an emunand set up just don’t choose that option

also this does not have sigchk In it so you won’t be able to install games but you can google around and find a better ini file that has everything. Like I said. If you want to wait about 6 hours I can help you more

Hi! Thanks for the reply. I already fixed it. Check the post if you're curious as to how. Thanks again!
