Note (Mariko Users Only):
If you updated via ChoiDujourNX on your sysNAND then you have to either get a donor boot0/boot1 or use a backup of your sysNAND boot0/boot1 and then restore it via NxNandManager, hekate, or sxos bootmenu. This is because ChoiDuJourNX corrupts your boot0/boot1 and will prevent you from being able to boot into sysNAND on Atmosphere.

Migration Steps:
Extract these files into the root of your SD card:
SX_Gear_v1.1.zip
(SX Core/Lite & SX Pro users only)- Make sure to overwrite your current boot.dat.
hekate_ctcaer_x.x.x_Nyx_x.x.x.zip
atmosphere-x.x.x-master.zip
SigPatches.zip
Move the following file to the /bootloader/payloads/
folder:
fusee.bin
Create a file named hekate_ipl.ini
inside of your /bootloader/
folder and paste one of these configurations within the file:
Erista devices:
Mariko devices:
And rename hekate_ctcaer_x.x.x.bin
to payload.bin
(this step applies only to SX Core/Lite & SX Pro users).
Create the file exosphere.ini
in the root of your SD card and paste one of the following configurations inside (this step is needed in order to blank your prodinfo so that you avoid getting your switch banned):
EmuNAND users:
SysNAND users:
Afterwards create a file named default.txt
in /atmosphere/hosts/
(the hosts
folder won't exist, so make sure to create it)
and paste this in your default.txt
file (this step is prevents you from connecting to Nintendo's servers):
Place your SD card back into your switch, power it on, and launch into Hekate.
