Installing large XCI

[dsrules]

Can I just connect a USB drive to the switch dock in order to install the XCI? Seems that the file is too big for my fat32 formatted SD card.

should work on docked usb, or handheld usb c to usb cable + 32GB+ flashdrive

Is DBI that much easier, though? Never tried it. I just boot up NX-Loader, boot Awoo by loading another app holding R on my JoyCon, then install from USB.

Is it really going to save me any time and effort doing it the other way? Besides saving a few clicks?

Serious question. Is there any benefit to using DBI if I already have a method that works? I want the best option available.

I dont know why Sciress refuses to at least incorporate a usb emunand when a vast majority use his cfw for running unsigned code anyways including himself? The fucker probably already has xci loading for his own enjoyment!
Who is he to say that nobody needs a terabyte for games?

Why bother doing that when you can just connect an usb to a computer and install.

Because he doesn't support piracy.

Yes via the switch USB-C port only

Running unsigned code is not considered piracy to nintendo?
Atmos is a gateway to piracy!

Reading problems?

Well running CFW is different than piracy if he doesn't provide what is needed to run the game.

it's how you use it that matters, but I think Nintendo would ban anyone on cfw, assuming they were pirating. sony's message is like unofficial apps on top of piracy. I'm sure they assume piracy regardless as well, but they can't prove you were pirating, so they added that.

And a car is a gateway to bank robbery?

yeah, I was thinking of how you use a gun. I'm sure all three of the companies will assume piracy, but they can't prove it, so they will add things like unofficial or unlicensed software if you're detected. personally, I don't think any cfw or exploited console belongs online, because it's not legit users' fault that the security for the switch, ps4 or 5, etc. sucks. the ps3, after it got hacked when sony said it was unhackable, was a disaster.

You can't just plug in a USB drive to the dock?

no

Yes, you can.

as Install source:
Yes, you can! And it is the most convenient way (for me) to install homebrew with DBI.

as Install target:
need to select your SD (or EMMC)

nah, usbc and usb ports are different
I was saying both works

I am using atmosphere. Tried using awuu on a pc but it keeps giving an install error halfway through.
