changing sx os to atmosphere

[OggieBoogie]

Hi, i use SX OS which sadly doesn't get updates anymore...
How hard it is to install atmosphere instead\in addition to sx?
is there a risk of bricking the console?

No risk at all, and not hard. What's hard, is knowing how to setup the various .ini files, if you use a "pack" or follow a guide, instead of reading the readme files and looking at the .ini templates.

At this point, you'll want to upgrade your firmware and kick SX to the curb altogether. If you use emuEMMC, I do not recommend trying to use the NYX (hekate) migrate function. It's easy enough to make it work manually as-is, whether you use file-based or partition. At least make backups of both your (emu)EMMC(s) , and your SD card, before trying anything besides placing the files on your card and booting from them.

I tried the procedure to convert this morning following -- https://rentry.org/mys8q -- with all the file versions as of today. I'm ok with recreating my emunand.

I don't see why setting up a CFW would risk bricking your console. In fact, since SX OS had brick code, it was easier to brick your Switch with SX OS than Atmosphere. As for setting it up, since SX OS uses Atmosphere code, its the same difficulty.
