1***I want to hack my Switch, wot do?***
2BACK UP YOR NAND FIRST, *BACK UP YOUR NAND FIRST*, ***BACK UP YOUR NAND FIRST***
3Then zip it to save space and put it somewhere it wont get delete, then just follow a guide, but the simple guide is, put Atmo on your SD card, inject Fusee, done
4
5***FAT32 or exFat***
6Fat32, exFat is garbage on the Switch with CFW and will easily corrupt, meaning you need to start again. You can do everything on 32 because games split to begin with from the eShop, if you have back ups, USB install exists.
7
8***Will I get banned?***
9You'll only get banned if you do stupid shit like installing pirated games or hacking online. If you only use CFW and you don't do anything stupid, you'll mostly be fine.
10
11***Will EmuNAND ban me?***
12EmuNAND is completely different to sysNAND, they both use different Nintendo folders, and different users, anything you do in EmuNAND wont be seen in sysNAND, so keep your sysNAND clean and keep your Emu offline at all times. You can literally corrupt Emu as many times as you want, and it wont touch your switch at all.
13
14***What's the point in EmuNAND anyway?***
15You can literally fuck your switch in any way you want in EmuNAND and it'll never touch your main NAND, meaning if you brick, you'll always be safe.
16
17***My back ups wont run, wot do?***
18You need ES and FS patches, Google them.
19
20***Kosmos wont run, I'm on 8.1***
21It's not updated, use Atmo only (at the time of this writing). Hekate also hasn't been updated, use Fusee (at the time of this writing).
22
23***Why doesn't Atmo load?***
24Make sure you're using Atmo only, not Kosmos, and if it doesn't load, delete and start again
25
26***Is EmuNAND easy to do?***
27Not really unless you know what you're doing, I wrote a dumb ass guide for it myself that worked for me, use it if you want, if not, wait for Hekate.
28
29***Windows wont format to fat32, wot do***
30http://www.ridgecrop.demon.co.uk/index.htm?guiformat.htm
31Windows refuses to format anything to fat32 above 32gb, use this
32
33***I'm really worried about being banned if I go online, what can I do?***
34Use 90DNS, it blocks Nintendo from seeing your switch. You'll have to set up an internet connection and changed the DNS, so I advise you set up an internet connection then turn your router off so nothing gets out, then replace your DNS settings with https://gitlab.com/ao/90dns
35
36***I want to pirate, how do I do that?***
37You can install this neat program called the eShop, it lets you download any game available on the Switch, and it's unbannable.
38
39***I've injected the payload but there's a black screen, wot do?***
40Delete everything on your SD Card EXCEPT the Nintendo folder, then start again.
41
42***I've read you made a NAND guide for dumb asses, where is it?***
43I TAKE ZERO RESONSIBILITY FOR ANYTHING YOU DO TO YOUR SWITCH NOW, IN THE FUTURE OR IN THE PASSED, THIS GUIDE IS JUST WHAT WORKED FOR ME, AND I'M DONE, SO I'M SHARING WHAT I DID TO MAKE IT WORK, IF IT DOESN'T WORK THEN I'M SORRY, BUT IT ISN'T MY FAULT, USE THIS AT YOUR OWN RISK

45Note this requires Linux and Windows because stupid 
46
47Copy your nand back up to your pc, stick on your desktop or somewhere for now
48Boot into Linux and navigate to your nand dump, right click in the folder and click open in terminal 
49Type cat BOOT0 BOOT1 rawnand.bin.00 rawnand.bin.01  rawnand.bin.02 rawnand.bin.03 rawnand.bin.04 rawnand.bin.05 rawnand.bin.06 rawnand.bin.07 rawnand.bin.08 rawnand.bin.09 rawnand.bin.10 rawnand.bin.11 rawnand.bin.12 rawnand.bin.13 rawnand.bin.14 > emummc.bin (If you backed up in Exfat, you just need to type BOOT0 BOOT1 rawnand.bin)
50Note the size of emummc.bin
51Format your SD card Linux using gparted in fat32, click devices at the top and press create partition table
52Boot into Windows, open partition manager, right click on your SD card and press delete, then right click and press "new simple volume", make it fat32, 100mb larger than emummc.bin
53Format that partition in windows as fat32 at 16k alloc by right clicking on your your new partition in Windows Explorer and clicking format
54Boot back into Linux and again, go to where emummc is and right click, open in terminal 
55Type sudo dd if=emummc.bim bs=512M of=/dev/<your_sd_card_partition> status=progress (replace the card partition with yours, mine was sde2 for example, you can find this in gparted) 
56Wait for it to finish
57Open gparted and right click on the partition of your emunand and click properties, look for the number for the first sector, copy it and Google "(that number) to hexadecimal" 
58Make an emummc with the following and put it in emummc/emummc.ini
59emummc_enabled = 1
60emummc_sector = your hex value here 
61emummc_id = 0x1
62
63Inject with fusee NOT hekate (at the time of this writing)
64
65Again this is stupidly long but it's the easiest and only way I could get it to work, so if this helps anyone then have fun
