@foone You may need the help of about 34 people to insert that floppy because with a capacaty of over 2GB it has to be incredibly big.🤣

foone OP , vor einem Monat

@ok_devalias amusingly I was actually working on a cow farm simulator a few years ago, then twitter and unity both exploded out from under us so we canceled it

foone OP , vor einem Monat

gah. I'm having continual trouble with a modded switch, because you need a microSD card which you copy files onto and they keep getting corrupted.

I corrupted my first SD card by trying to copy a game that was too big and the fat filesystem filling with lost sectors, so I wiped it and started setting it up again. My idea was that I'd set it up and then image the whole SD card!

foone OP , vor einem Monat

I get the new SD card set up, but before I image it I try copying a single game onto it.

this corrupted the filesystem. See the above error? That was windows deciding the microSD card wasn't formatted anymore

@foone Are you using FAT32 or exFAT? Ran into a TON of issues with that happening on exFAT with the Switch specifically for some reason D:

foone OP , vor einem Monat

@KayOhtie good question. I was following the guide which had me format it from the TegraExplorer payload, and I'm not sure how it formatted it.

KayOhtie , vor einem Monat

@foone I honestly don't remember either, derp.

foone OP , vor einem Monat

@KayOhtie I went back in: turns out it does fat32

@foone @KayOhtie (this is because nintendo's exfat driver is a buggy mess that loves to randomly eat data)

@foone hopefully it’s not a not-so-subtle but non-obvious hardware fault

foone OP , vor einem Monat

Using Awoo-Installer's network mode to avoid having to copy a bunch of files on and off of the SD card seems to have kept it from instantly corrupting itself.

So now I'm backing up the SD card as a dd-image. I can just re-image it or stick it on a second card if something goes wrong

@foone i leave the SD card in my modded switch all the time and Connect via USB cable to the Computer. No corruption ever via dbi installer. Maybe worth a shot.

@foone Also, windows hates the emunand partition that you probably created.

I've had to re-hack switches from scratch too many damn times.

@foone make sure your SD Card actually has the advertised capacity too. It’s very common for counterfeit ones to report X capacity on the firmware while having actually X/2, and it causes this exact issue

@argv_minus_one are you going to have sex with my floppy?

No, just write another file system on it. 😋
