"Unknown pkg1 version.
HOS version not supported!

Trying backup bootloader...
Found pkg1 <``>

Unknown pkg1 version.

Failed to launch HOS!

Press any key..."

this is the message im getting when i try to boot atmo emummc. i know this has been posted multiple times before but everything i tried didn't work. im gonna repost my reddit submission here it didn't get permission yet:

i have been trying this for 2 whole days and nothing can fix it. i restarted the process 2 times and i don't know what i'm doing wrong. can someone here please please give me a straight up answer about what i have to do? i did the switch hacks guide first and then i did the
rentry guide. i completely formatted my sd card twice (i made sure to put the original files back everytime like suggested) and nothing works... im at a loss. i replaced all the sys patch / sig patch files a billion times, i changed the entry of hekate_ipl. in and the emmu text file also a billion times and no method worked, im on the newest firmware (19.0.1), i bought this switch used but it has never been used for cfw, and im sure i have all the newest releases that i need for modding. i know because i tried so many

the weirdest thing is it worked fine the first time i tried yesterday for a small while, and then it just, didn't work after that. and i didn't mess with the files at the time...

thanks for your help in advance, im stuck :/
 
Update your hekate and Atmosphere files.
i did that like 10 times, and it does not work. i started from scratch 3 times overall, 1st time it worked for a bit but then it didn't and after not finding a way to fix it i tried 2 times again, formatting my micro sd card 2 times, starting the progress all over again, but nothing seems to be working

You using fusee or hekate as your bootloader? what is your SD card format? did you h2testw the card?
 
im using hekate, my sd card format is FAT32 (formatted it, its a 512gb sandisk), yes i used h2testw
so, after days of trying i tried using my old sd card (nintendo branded 128gb) and i started over again. for some reason it finally worked then. i don't know what the problem was with the card before, but i'm definitely gonna send it back and maybe order a nintendo branded one next time to be safe... maybe i just had the misfortune of getting a faulty sandisk card. maybe this will help someone else who faces the same problem :)

the Nintendo branded cards are SanDisk.

Having a Nintendo brand won't make it any better beside you are wasting money on Nintendo brand sd card.

Sounds like a similar problem that I ran into when I migrated to a larger SD card. I had to alter the hekate_ipl.ini file to get it to work. I changed the launch payload from the "unknown package 1" (package3) to fusee.bin and it seemed to work for me.

The original code for the hekate_ipl.ini file read:
Code:
{--- EMUNAND START---}
[CFW (EMUMMC)]
id=EMUNAND
emummcforce=1
fss0=atmosphere/package3
atmosphere=1
logopath=bootloader/EnergyStarBL.bmp
icon=bootloader/res/emu_boot.bmp
{--- EMUNAND END ---}

I changed it to:
Code:
{--- EMUNAND START---}
[CFW (EMUMMC)]
id=EMUNAND
emummcforce=1
payload=bootloader/payloads/fusee.bin
atmosphere=1
icon=bootloader/res/emu_boot.bmp
kip1patch=nosigchk
{--- EMUNAND END ---}

Here's the original thread where I had posted the same question about a year ago:
Unknown pkg 1 version on new SanDisk 1.5 TB Micro SD

Hope it works for you!
 
I changed it to:

{--- EMUNAND START---}

id=EMUNAND

icon=bootloader/res/emu_boot.bmp
kip1patch=nosigchk
{--- EMUNAND END ---}
When you use payload=fusee.bin, none of your other hekate settings matter.
fusee 1) Automatically loads emummc, if emummc.ini exists and it set up properly and 2) no longer works with ips patches (sys-patch is required, unless you're using a custom fusee.bin).

So the best thing to do would be to change the payload to hekate.bin. Is that right?

No. You’d put yourself in a boot loop every time you pressed that button :rofl2: (It would just reload nyx again)

You want to use the fss0 method. Proper ini files are everywhere on this site, but the first thing you should do is read the front page of the hekate repo.

Okay. Thanks for the heads up. I read up on the hekate repo. Just wiped clean my SD card to do a fresh reinstall and update. I also read up on fss0 and looked around to see other ini files. I ended grabbing the HAT package as someone really recommended it. The ini files included had fss0 configured. I was able to get everything up a running again.

Glad you're sorted, but packs do not help you at all (you don't learn anything that way). Please study the .ini files and learn what the configuration actually does. This will greatly help you in the future. Also, packs tend to include extras that you may not realize are there, that will cause crashes and such in future HOS/Atmosphere versions, until they get updated. Not knowing you have them in the first place, is only going to give you headaches later.
