no , would that matter ? my sysnad is already already has the exfat support.

does you emuNAND have exFAT support tho?

well it should be ,because i cloned my 4.1 sysnad then updated it to 5.1 using choixdujour.

A switch would have an issue booting with an SD card that isn't supported. I the event that it does boot up, the system won't recognize it.

ok well, I would backup all my game save data via checkpoint then wipe and rebuild emuNAND.

should it be able to boot an emunand with a higher fw than the oringal tho ? i read somewhere that it shouldn't because the number of the burned fuses does'nt match

That shouldn't be a problem. Because you can update fw without burning fuses and still use your updated swtich with no problems.

alright , i will try to create a different emunand when i got back home , then update it to 5.1 along with the Exfat update and get back to you , thank you guys!
one question tho , when i update via choixdujournx , when i choose exfat doesn't that update only the exfat driver ?

You would have to install the exfat version of 5.1 (or whatever firmware) yes or it will Just install the fat32.

Had the same problem as not being able to boot emunand (black screen). This is what I did to fix the issue:
*In SX OS boot menu, go to the nand back up option and select dump nand.
*On the next menu, press advanced options and enable only "boot0" and "boot1"(other options should be disabled).
*Do a nand backup of the selected files. Should only take a few seconds.
*Turn off your switch and place your SD card on your PC
*Browse to "sxos/backup/" folder.
*Copy "boot0" and "boot1", then browse to "sxos/emunand/" folder.
*Paste and replace your copied files.
*Now try to boot emunand normally as you would before.

That fixed my black screen issue. Hope that others can fix their emunand as well.
