Hacking Question Atmosphere "LayeredFS"

[MonMonz]

._.

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

Could someone help me?

Only things you need is BCPKG2-1-Normal-Main.bin, BOOT0.bin, TSEC & SBK Key from a nand dump.

Written in pure C#, no hactool.exe needed, comes with source code.
- link removed, get updated version here: https://gbatemp.net/threads/atmosphere-layeredfs.507653/page-2#post-8059831
- copy BCPKG2-1-Normal-Main.bin & BOOT0.bin into "Data" dir
- run KeyDumper.exe
- enter SBK, TSEC and optional SD SEED (you can also edit the Settings.ini)
- the program should generate a keys.txt and decrypt all needed files
- now run KernelPatcher.exe, it will use the decrypted Kernel.bin and generate a kernel-patched.bin

there is no reason to stay on lower firmware...maybe these things are supporting highest firmware for a reason? yes, you have a CHANCE at a coldboot before people on higher firmwares, but that's it....latest firmware can play all games, access eShop, play games online....UPDATE! Nintendo CANNOT patch RCM on current hardware....all you're doing is holding yourself back by not updating...what are you going to do when a game comes out that you REALLY want to play?

As true as this viewpoint currently sounds, I still reckon 1.0.0 holders will see a benefit in the long term in some fashion.

So it crashs your Switch before HorizonOS is booted ?
Did you trys if fs_mitm.kip works without a patched kernel (OS should boot) ?

Can confirm that it doesn't even boot without a patched kernel. I only know of the one fs_mitm.kip that's floating around though. Could you point me in the right direction if there's an alternative?

Hi all,
What shall I do with kernelpatch.bin on 4.1 fw ? Please.

 

[dovah]

Same question here. what shall I do ?

you need sdcard files for layeredfs and replace that file in modules/romfs

i downloaded sdcard files from here: https://gbatemp.net/threads/how-to-get-layeredfs-working.507460/#post-8051912
but they're not available anymore.

The kernel patch adds a new feature, that fs_mitm.kip needs to work, so for 3.x and lower fs_mitm does not work.
I may know why, 4.x changed some apis and newer homebrew (like WAIN dumper) also doesn't work on 3.x or lower.

So for 1.x - 3.x you need to wait for Emunand or an updated layeredfs, kernel patch alone is not enough to make it working!

No it isnt working i used rayman on rayman demo but dindt see the title correctly lol.

Strange thing is that the demo still launches normaly no black screen etc.

i hope then layeredfs gets updated soon
thanks so much for your effort

I'm actually on 3.0.0, hoping for a new fs_mitm so I can up to 3.0.1, would like to know as soon as it hits.

- Unpack the 7z to a folder, like "C:\SwitchToolbox v1.0.0.2\"
- Copy BCPKG2-1-Normal-Main.bin & BOOT0.bin into "C:\SwitchToolbox v1.0.0.2\Data\"
- run KeyDumper.exe
- enter SBK & TSEC key
- wait till dumping is finished, there should be a new folder: "C:\SwitchToolbox v1.0.0.2\Data\package2\"
- if you got this far, you can run KernelPatcher.exe
- It should create "kernel-patched.bin" if you use a 3.x - 5.x nand dump
- use that file with hekate-ipl


No, XCI dumps are encrypted, you need to decrypt them to use layeredfs.


So it crashs your Switch before HorizonOS is booted ?
Did you trys if fs_mitm.kip works without a patched kernel (OS should boot) ?

Thank you... Tested the following and it works
Donor: Stardew Valley

Following doesn't work;
Donor: Stardew Valley
