You should use minitool partition wizard to repartition the sd card, what you running on ? exfat or FAT32?

FAT32

FAT32

Might want to check the SD card for legitimacy, use h2testw for Windows and F3XShift for Mac.

So I'm getting Unknown pkg1 error after upgrading my sd card to a bigger one.
I copied my 256gb SD card contents to my 512 one. Did archive bit cuz it was on a mac, and I got this
Did I do something wrong?

Looks like I did I got a Partition based not filed based.

I used that Rentry one took some time but I'm at the same issues as this guy here #18
However unlike him I have a RAW2 where all my files are(its the biggest folder on the drive. So I should just configure my new emummc configuration file that looks like this
[emummc]
enabled=1
sector=0x2
path=emuMMC/ER00
id=0x0000
nintendo_path=Emutendo


To look like my old one right?
Old one
[emummc]
enabled=2
sector=0x1c490000
path=emuMMC/RAW2
id=0x32574152
nintendo_path=emuMMC/RAW2/Nintendo


Edit I keep on trying and it still doesn't show up just shows as my switch when I first got it back modded.

Is you sector in the right place?

Take a look at you emunand with Hekate and it will show you where it thinks everything is.

Not sure will have to check but after because I tried to just copy paste the old ini config into the new ini and that didn’t work. Tried to put the raw 2 contents into the er00 folder as well and tried to take it back and some files were deleted(like a lot from 189gb to 9gb) -_- so now I’m redoing the whole process of copying my sd contents again for a redo(I had backed up the original er00 folder as well) so I’m at at the end of the rentry guide for nxnandmanager
Going to take about another 2 hours for the transfer -_-

Am not sure where to ask, but when I play MH Rise and open Zing (Breeze overlay) and enter the cheats menu. It freezes... What can I do (only MH Rise causes it)

No worries man. Good job oh the backup though. Whew! Just take it step by step. It will all come together in the end.

I don't want to buy an rcm jig. Is there any diy solution that won't short circuit my switch so I can homebrew it?

Do you have specific cheats deployed? I can try it later today on mine. I currently have mine apart doing an upgrade.

They‘re around $5 on Amazon. Can be at your door on Friday. Any reason you’re averse to picking one up?

Alternatives include:
jamming an aluminum Gum wrapper in the slot (sketchy)
Paper clip (middle of the road safe)
Opening up a Joycon and bridging the pins inside (safe but requires some tools)

Because it would be hard to explain a random amazon box containing an rcm jig to my parents that I bought with a credit card I don't have, but I might just ask for one lol

fair enough. Here’s a Reddit thread with a few more alternatives. after you do it once you can turn on AutoRCM in Hekate and you won’t need a jig again.



Aluminum foil over the end of your joycon is probably the quickest.
Opening the back of your switch and pulling the eMMC (casing a recovery mode boot…aka RCM) is good too but you’d have to buy a ‘Y’ screwdriver on Amazon with that non-existent card of yours.

I do have a Y screwdriver from a joycon repair I have, but I am feeling pretty lazy rn. I got aluminum foil on hand, so wish me luck

No I don't have cheats enabled... It happens with breeze but edizon works

Oh wow. That is an odd one then.

I would ping TomVita on his discord. He’s really involved and always super helpful.
