So i want to follow a tutorialmade by a user here, to have multiple partitions on and one of them i will be a Clean emmumc that allows yo to go online, the other one is de Dirty one, for for not going online.

First of all:
I am not able to find this in the internet, HOW I create a Clean backup?
What do i do with this back up after? move it into pc? store it? restore it directly into the system?

I think once i understand how to make this i can follow along the tutorial but im not sure.

Thanks in advance
 
Clean is nand that hasn't been affected by cfw. If you haven't done any cfw/hekate stuff the clean nand is the nand on your switch. You can make a backup of it, that would be your clean nand you'll start your cfw journey with. As soon as you run cfw on that partition it won't be clean anymore. If you want to go online, just reboot into stock firmware, and keep that clean.

Why make a new thread for this? If you can't follow the tutorial, then the tutorial is not as good as it should be, and you should be replying to the tutorial to ask your questions. The person who took the time to write it, should be willing to help (if not others), while updating the tutorial to make it more clear for future people who come along to follow it.

If you've already done something that can or has caused your system to be banned, then there is no going back. Creating a "clean" image from a dirty one is pointless, because the act of cleaning it can get you banned even if you've never installed an nsp, for the simple fact that the telemetry will not match what the nintendo servers captured the last time you had your system online.

You can't have done anything like that BEFORE you've used CFW, so step 1 is ALWAYS make a complete backup of your emmc the first time you get nyx to load (nyx is what you see when you launch Hekate). You want to always have a backup, or 2 or 3, of this initial backup stored on your PC or NAS or external drive. How? Tap on Tools - > Backup eMMC. For good measure, you can also tap Console Info, and dump fuses and kfuses as well.

So basically, now that i already “corrupt” my switch with the CFW, it makes no sense to make a clean backup cause its not possible to create it, am I right? Thanks anyways!

that depends entirely on whether or not you have installed an .nsp to your sysEMMC. If you IMMEDIATELY created an emummc, and have only been installing stuff on it, then your sysmmc should still be clean. In that case, do the backup proccess and keep the backup safe.
