Hacking Question SD Card - 2 EmuNANDs, plus Ubuntu and/or Android

[Danttebayo]

Hi there,

Here's a question I can't seem to find an answer for.
I currently have a Switch with an old (7.0.1) SysNAND that is never used plus 2 EmuNANDs, one for online (updated 10.0.2 via official Nintendo updater in settings) and one for offline (updated to 10.0.2 by ChoiDuJour NX). Both EmuNANDs work great and Hekate is setup to boot either with a separate logo. It all works great so far. (and I've come to terms with the risk of requiring Atmosphere to boot the online EmuNAND even though I never open any homebrew or do cheats, etc.; only officially purchased software)

The trick is, I'd like to install Ubuntu and possibly Android but all of the tutorials I can find are specifically for one EmuNAND only plus they don't take into consideration anyone that already has a working EmuNAND (or 2) that they want to keep. Everything is about wiping and formatting the card either via script or manually.

Any advice on how to:

A) Keep one or ideally both of my EmuNANDs
B) Setup an SD Card to install Ubuntu and/or Android, plus (hopefully) restore 2 existing EmuNANDs

Thanks in advance.

The latest version of Hekate can manage all of this.
