Switchroot files

[denullz]

Hi guys,

I created a separate partition for Android and installed switchroot, but the files from switchroot are on the partition meant for my Switch, where my Atmosphere is also located. I can't imagine that's correct. When I access my SD card via UMS in Hekate, only that one partition is shown. Only when I'm in Android does the other partition appear. And then all the files are listed again there, as if everything is installed twice.

I think since Hekate, the bootloader (which is responsible for loading operating systems), is on the main partition, the switchroot files need to be there as well in order for it to then be booted as an operating system. It can also be that the Android system and files are mounted to the main partition for ease of access, letting you view the single partition as a sort of folder if you will.
