Alright Guys,

Been trying to get this working all night i eventually got HBMenu on my 64GB MicroSDXC Evo , i was able to boot into HB after i used rufus tool to format to FAT32 and had the hbmenu files on the root of the card, i wanted to use checkpoint and placed it in the switch folder, when i went back to launch the firmware in RCM for the second time i get a red error message saying "failed to mount the SD card" ever since then i can't get back into hbmenu because of the above message never mind accessing checkpoint. I have tried a 32GB card in FAT32 format also. Any help i would appreciate it thanks!

I am on 5.0.2, i installed the software for my SDCard on the switch prompt.
I used checkpoint 3.1.0
hekate ipl 5.0

I am also using the TegraRCM to inject my payload.

I am currently using the same card formatted in exFAT. I mentioned this in another thread but honestly just try combinations of normal booting and reinserting the card. For me at least, it sometimes just doesn't want to work. I would try that before trying to remodify the card.

Same story, tried 3 times still getting the same error message
 
Do you have all your files properly in place? I noticed if I had any stray file (even if completely unrelated) on the root of the sd it would give me that error.
 
I will try to redo my setup and post the steps and see if they work for you too.
Appreciate the help man

yeah just the nintendo folder was there
 
I think this error will never die..

Use an updated hekate - ipl.
(hint: rajkosto's binaries and my binaries work)

I'll try your payload and report back

not sure how to use rajkostos payload unfortunately as they are individual files
 
I retried it and it worked. All I did was (using Windows 8.1 built-in format) format to exFAT with 4096KB allocation size, downloaded the sd files from Jan4V/hekate-ipl-50x, put the extracted zip in the root, ran the payload, and it worked just fine.

My switch is unpatched, i have put all the required atmosphere files on my SD card, the SD card works fine on booting switch normally, however when I try to inset the payload, i get this message . Fatal Error, failed to initialize the SD card: Press Power to Reboot. ( note I have replaced the SD card slot and bought a new SD card) ..not sure what's the problem. anyone can help?

I'm running firmware10.2
