I have a 15-file rawnand backup (from .00 to .14) from Hekate. I am trying to do a full NAND restore but hekate is not recognizing it. What do I do?
- Hekate says "cannot load rawnand.bin", which doesn't exist because the rawnand is broken into 15 files.
- I tried to join the files but that did not resolve the issue on my switch.
- I've also been told by different people that I shouldn't join the files and leave them as they are.

Advice on how I can get this to work would much appreciated.

You need to join your 15 part Nand into rawNand.bin with the scripts available here. Since hekate can only restore an unsplit Nand atm.
Once it has been combined you need to place it into your backup/<SYSID>/restore/ folder in order to restore it.
Also you'll need to restore your boot0/1 backup if you're moving to an older/newer firmware with the Nand backup.

I have a similar question. I had a multifile nand backup which I merged to a single file which sums at 45Gb.
My hecate restore says the sd card backup doesnt match.
eMMC's selected part size.

Unfortunately I dont have anymore the multiple files.
I have boot files and biskeys

    Will you give me mouth to mouth oxygen if my throat closes?
  • K3N1 @ K3N1:

    I could also yank out the rest of my teeth but theirs professionals for that
  • x65943 @ x65943:
    If your throat closes, putting oxygen in your mouth will not solve anything - as you will be introducing oxygen prior to the area of obstruction
  • JuanMena @ JuanMena:
    Just kiss me Kyle.
  • x65943 @ x65943:
    You either need to be intubated to bypass obstruction or create a stoma inferior to the the area of obstruction to survive
  • x65943 @ x65943:
    "Just kiss me Kyle." And I thought all the godreborn gay stuff was a smear campaign

    Sweet found my Wii u PSU right after I ordered a new one :tpi:
  • JuanMena @ JuanMena:
    It was waiting for you to order another one.
    Seems like, your PSU was waiting for a partner.
  • JuanMena @ JuanMena:
    Keep them both
    separated or you'll have more PSUs each year.
  • K3N1 @ K3N1:
    Well one you insert one PSU into the other one you get power
  • JuanMena @ JuanMena:
    It literally turns it on.
