2- Yeah requires crap and the use of Auto-RCM crap
Fail...
Everyone hates on autoRCM, however if you are not backward, and most of us aren`t, it is fine. Let the downgrade / upgrade commence.
You can FULLY RECOVER from ANY mishaps.
I hate misinformation.
I never said we can't go back, I said on step 3 we could use a backup on the CFW to go back to clean, however to be completely safe is almost impossible with CFW because it would require hacking everything, playing backups and doing stuff all offline, then put a backup to go back to clean status and play online, then do a new backup for increased clean log data to leave no bad traces of non existing logs\data, then hack it again and do everything offline, then put the backup again to go fully clean and play online...
While real emunand reading\writing from M-SD most likely we just need to remove the M-SD from the console and it probably gets clean by it self without doing anything as it won't boot the Emunand CFW and won't even have the M-SD for nintendo to read anything from its content, it goes back to original FW fully clean (in theory)...
This is the exact same thing only on the internal memory of the console. What's so hard to understand?
I don't think its the same thing...
If its patching something on sysnand it will continue there, I'm sure nintendo can read the content of internal storage and see whats there (doesn't mean they do or bother), but if its patched in sysnand nintendo could simply read its contents and give a ban and we would have to keep deleting it for online play or run a backup to go back to clean FW just like using CFW...
The difference of having a full separate storage for emunand is exactly that on the M-SD we just remove it from the console and in theory is a full original console and we don't ever have to delete M-SD emunand content or having to load backups to go back to where your sysnand is already fully cleaned all original (this is just theoretically speaking as we never know if the emunand wouldnt ever make some traces on the nand chip or if sometime later nintendo could update and get a way to log the RCM data which most likely they won't, but no one knows, that sadly would render everything based on RCM detected and would require some black hacking to keep it stealth

).
ps: But that is not even the reason that I want emunand on the M-SD, I won't update my console anyway or care for online... I want is just not using nand chip at all, leave it intact and test all kinds of random beta\alpha crap out there on a M-SD emunand environment and even maybe some nightly beta builds from good sources of atmosphere or something like that if it ever appears, if it bricks, don't care or need any work, just format M-SD and make a new emunand, don't need those huge hassle steps of fixing the nand, connecting to a PC, reconstructing partitions and so on, also risk free of having permanent bad sectors on nand memory that might lead to a unrecoverable fix and would need a new memory chip.
