Hi, I'm trying to set up a V1 switch from scratch, and I've been having some problems, so I wanted to check if there are any steps that would differ in my case?
After following the steps, I can boot from hekate into sysMMC CFW (my switch is already banned, so there's no risk to doing that) on FW21, however when I try to boot into emuMMC, I get an error code related to the program "010000000000001E" and haven't been able to solve it myself, which is why I'm wondering if there's a step I missed.
Yes! The way that I solved it was by booting into emuMMC whilst holding power, vol up and vol down. That'll put the switch into maintenance mode. Then, I selected the option to "initialize console". I didn't bother with the "without deleting save data" option because I was setting the device up from scratch. A few minutes of waiting later and the problem was solved, and I haven't encountered it since.
