Hacking Question How can I update system to 4.1.0?

[Bumblecito]

Hi everyone, my Switch is currently at firmware 3.0.2 but I want to update to firm 4.1.0 because I can not load backups >=4.x on SX OS, so is there any way to update system to that specific firmware (4.1.0)? I read somewhere that Kirby Star Allies cartridge has on it that update, is it possible to dump it and installing? Is there another game with that specific update on the cartridge?

Thanks in advance!

You can find out more about games and if they have an update on the cartridge here: https://gbatemp.net/threads/list-games-required-firmware-version.485959/
Updating your system firmware with a backup probably work, but I haven't heard anyone trying this. I'm not sure if it's really safe.

You could, if i am not wrong, take a physical game that required 4.1.0 and by using it in your switch if will updated your system as well.

Well thanks to all of You I already have the UPDATE folder, but I'm lost here, what would be the next step. Do You know how Can I copy to the update root on the Switch system?

BTW I don't care about burning fuses

I'm backing up NAND and dumping keys, after that I'm going to try to copy update files into update path in system, I wish I didn't brick it :v

You still have a NAND backup, don't worry.
