I got a new large MicroSD card today, formatted to Fat32, put the latest hekate v6.0.1 and Atmosphère 1.5.1 on the root as well as patched files in the Atmosphère folder and now I got a new problem:

"Failed to open payload.bin!"

EDIT: This is a Switch Lite with a modchip.
at the root of your SDCard, rename "hekate_ctcaer_6.0.2.bin" to "payload.bin"

That is the root folder. That Hekate.bin file is what you are looking for.

a chip (M0, HWFLY, SX converted with spacecraft-nx)) is programmed to launch "payload.bin" at the root of the microSD Card, and nothing else.

it can't guess that you want to launch fusee, hekate or any other payload. So, the rule is clear : rename payload.bin ANY payload you want to launch at boot. As simple as easy.

That’s just a template. Try one from here:

more specifically pick the one from here that matches your setup:

Thanks, I'm in, but I have another issue, I can't connect to Nintendo's network to update and download. I cleared the *.INI file from atmosphere\hosts, but it didn't change anything. So what's up with that?
(Never mind, recalled I had the same issue last year, prodinfo was disabled)

Is it worth updating only atmosphere? I not on firmware 16.

Not really necessary.
It depends if you like the new functionalities like using the Bluetooth paring database from a file on your SD, so if you use EmuNAND and SysNAND you don't need to sync the pairing database manually, even if you have several consoles you can share your controllers between them.

You must note what you need to update all your homebrew, overlays and sigpatches.
