=== Bootloader configuration ===
The bootloader can be configured via 'bootloader/hekate_ipl.ini' (if it is present on the SD card). Each ini section represents a boot entry, except for the special section 'config' that controls the global configuration.
There are four possible type of entries. "'''[ ]'''": Boot entry, "'''{ }'''": Caption, "'''#'''": Comment, "'''newline'''": .ini cosmetic newline.
You can find a template [https://github.com/CTCaer/hekate/blob/v6.0.2/res/hekate_ipl_template.ini here].

|-
| warmboot={FILE path}
| Replaces the warmboot binary
|-
| secmon={FILE path}
| Replaces the security monitor binary
|-
| kernel={FILE path}
| Replaces the kernel binary
|-
| kip1={FILE path}
| Replaces/Adds kernel initial process. Multiple can be set.
|-
| kip1={FOLDER path}/*
| Loads every .kip/.kip1 inside a folder. Compatible with single kip1 keys.
|-
| fss0={FILE path}
| Takes an Atmosphere <code>package3</code> binary (formerly fusee-secondary.bin) and <code>extracts</code> all needed parts from it. kips, exosphere, warmboot and mesophere if enabled.
|-
| fss0experimental=1
| Enables loading of experimental content from a FSS0 storage
|-
| exofatal={FILE path}
| Replaces the exosphere fatal binary for Mariko
|-
| ----------------------
| ----------------------------------------------------------
|-
| kip1patch=patchname
| Enables a kip1 patch. Specify with multiple lines and/or in one line with <code>,</code> as separator. If actual patch is not found, a warning will show up
|-
| emupath={FOLDER path}
| Forces emuMMC to use the selected one. (=emuMMC/RAW1, =emuMMC/SD00, etc). emuMMC must be created by hekate because it uses the raw_based/file_based files.
|-
| emummcforce=1
| Forces the use of emuMMC. If emummc.ini is disabled or not found, then it causes an error.
|-
| emummc_force_disable=1
| Disables emuMMC, if it's enabled.
|-
| stock=1
| Disables unneeded kernel patching and CFW kips when running stock or semi-stock. <code>If emuMMC is enabled, emummc_force_disable=1</code> is required. emuMMC is not supported on stock. If additional KIPs are needed other than OFW's, you can define them with <code>kip1</code> key. No kip should be used that relies on Atmosphère patching, because it will hang. If <code>NOGC</code> is needed, use <code>kip1patch=nogc</code>.
|-
| fullsvcperm=1
| Disables SVC verification (full services permission). Doesn't work with Mesosphere as kernel.
|-
| debugmode=1
| Enables Debug mode. Obsolete when used with exosphere as secmon.
|-
| atmosphere=1
| Enables Atmosphère patching. Not needed when <code>fss0</code> is used.
|-
| ----------------------
| ----------------------------------------------------------
|-
| payload={FILE path}
| Payload launching. Tools, Android/Linux, CFW bootloaders, etc. Any key above when used with that, doesn't get into account.
|-
| ----------------------
| ----------------------------------------------------------
|-
| l4t=1
| L4T Linux/Android native launching.
|-
| boot_prefixes={FOLDER path}
| L4T bootstack directory.
|-
| ram_oc=0
| L4T RAM Overclocking. Check README_CONFIG.txt for more info.
|-
| uart_port=0
| Enables logging on serial port for L4T uboot/kernel.
|-
| Additional keys
| Each distro supports more keys. Check README_CONFIG.txt for more info.
|-
| ----------------------
| ----------------------------------------------------------
|-
| id=IDNAME
| Identifies boot entry for forced boot via id. Max 7 chars.
|-
| logopath={FILE path}
| If it exists, it will load the specified bitmap. Otherwise <code>bootloader/bootlogo.bmp</code> will be used if exists
|-
| icon={FILE path}
| Force Nyx to use the icon defined here. If this is not found, it will check for a bmp named as the boot entry ([Test 2] -&gt; <code>bootloader/res/Test 2.bmp</code>). Otherwise defaults will be used.
|}
'''Note1''': When using the wildcard (<code>/*</code>) with <code>kip1</code> you can still use the normal <code>kip1</code> after that to load extra single kips.
'''Note2''': When using FSS0 it parses exosphere, warmboot and all core kips. You can override the first 2 by using <code>secmon</code>/<code>warmboot</code> after defining <code>fss0</code>. You can define <code>kip1</code> to load an extra kip or many via the wildcard (<code>/*</code>) usage.
'''Warning''': Careful when you define ''fss0 core'' kips when using <code>fss0</code> or the folder (when using <code>/*</code>) includes them. This is in case the kips are incompatible between them. If compatible, you can override <code>fss0</code> kips with no issues (useful for testing with intermediate kip changes). In such cases, the <code>kip1</code> line must be under <code>fss0</code> line.
==== Boot entry key/value combinations for Exosphère ====

===FAQ===
'''Q. Which Linux/Android distributions are supported in Partition Manager?'''<br>
* For L4T Linux you can use the official Ubuntu Bionic 3.4.0 and newer or any other distro betas.
* For android you can get Android 10.
'''Q. I don't care about emuMMC/Linux/Android. Can the Part manager be used for something else?'''<br>
* Yes. You can still reformat your SD card to a single FAT32 partition.
* You can even use it when you have exFAT and you want to format to FAT32.
* It is also suggested to format your sd card via hekate. That's because it prepares it for performance. something that many partitioning tools neglect.

Hekate is a powerful and user-friendly bootloader for the Nintendo Switch that allows users to customize and control their device's boot process.

One of the key benefits of Hekate is its graphical user interface (GUI), which makes it easy for even novice users to navigate and understand. The interface provides a variety of customization options, including the ability to change the device's boot logo and select the default boot configuration.

Another notable feature of Hekate is its support for emuMMC (Emulated NAND). It allows you to allocate a section of your SD card as internal storage (NAND) for your Switch while it's running custom firmware. This means you can keep your stock OS for online use in games you own; It also protects the system from potential bricks since all the software is run from the SD card and any modifications can be reversed or recovered from.

Features

  • Fully Configurable and Graphical with Touchscreen and Joycon input support.
  • Launcher Style, Background and Color Themes.
  • HOS (Switch OS) Bootloader - For CFW Sys/Emu, OFW Sys and Stock Sys.
  • Android & Linux Bootloader.
  • Payload Launcher.
  • eMMC/emuMMC Backup/Restore Tools.
  • SD Card Partition Manager - Prepares and formats SD Card for any combo of HOS (Sys/emuMMC), Android and Linux.
  • emuMMC Creation & Manager - Can also migrate and fix existing emuMMC.
  • Switch Android & Linux flasher.
  • USB Mass Storage (UMS) for SD/eMMC/emuMMC - Converts Switch into a SD Card Reader.
  • USB Gamepad - Converts Switch with Joycon into a USB HID Gamepad.
  • Hardware and Peripherals info (SoC, Fuses, RAM, Display, Touch, eMMC, SD, Battery, PSU, Charger).
  • Many other tools like Archive Bit Fixer, Touch Calibration, SD/eMMC Benchmark, AutoRCM enabler and more.

Note: For maximum performance of UMS in Windows, you need to run nyx_usb_max_rate__run_only_once_per_windows_pc.reg, only once per PC you have. It only affects hekate's usb device. You can also view that file with text editor and see what it does. Linux/Mac OS users do not need that.

Installation

How to update:

  • Drag n drop bootloader folder into sd card root and hit merge/replace.
  • No need to delete that folder first, especially if you want your configs and payloads.
  • You can choose to update your RCM injection device or PC with the new hekate_ctcaer_x.x.x.bin or not.
  • In any case, bootloader/update.bin, will be checked and if newer it will get loaded.
  • update.bin is hekate and it is already copied with the bootloader folder drag n drop update process.

Notice about Atmosphere 1.0.0 and up:

  • The fss0=atmosphere/fusee-secondary.bin in hekate_ipl.ini must be changed to fss0=atmosphere/package3.
  • And make sure that atmosphere/contents folder does not have old Atmosphere components.

Notice about resized emuMMC:

  • Resized emuMMC does not have the slow bug anymore.
  • You can create a new one or recreate it via Nyx and the issue will be gone.

    • Stability was improved for higher frequencies for T210/LPDDR4.
    • It also significantly affects high density ram modules like in 8GB configurations.
    • Additionally, they can be improved extra with the ram_oc_opt ac mode also..
    • Fixed an issue where sometimes timing reduction was not allowed on 1600 MHz.
    • A new ram_oc_opt= parameter was added to support advanced ram oc configuration for both T210 and T210B01..
    • Mostly for users with T210/LPDDR4 because of low frequencies and others that like to optimize (T210B01/LPDDR4X)..
    • Read more in wiki.
    • ram_oc_vdd2 max voltage limit was raised to 1237mV for T210. T210B01 remains at Jedec max of 1175mV.
    • Fixed an issue for DDR200 on T210 when RAM frequency was oc one.
  • Nyx v1.6.0 changes:
    • Support was added for Android 13+ dynamic partition scheme and also raised system partition size to 3GB for legacy (Android 10-11).
    • Fixed an issue where emuMMC sector offset parsing was failing if SD card is bigger than 1TB.
    • Fixed an issue with some sd cards showing incomplete info (e.g. ADATA).
    • Improved fuses info (corrected major/minor and added parsed iddq info).
    • 3rd-gen RAM modules model name from Hynix and Micron are now shown properly.
    • Hw info will now show per chip ram info instead of single chip and 2 channels.
    • Joycon auto calibration on init was relaxed to fix an issue with drifting with HAL effect based joystick mods..
    • Additionally, that fix was also incorporated in the Switch to PC gamepad USB mode.
    • Added built-in 6axis calibration dumping for all the rest Switch SKUs and stick type for Lite for use in L4T.
    • Added info for sd card max supported bus speed and consolidate all UHS classes into one field.
    • Added info about some LCD panel clones and new official revisions.
    • Fan is now controlled in a finer way.
  • BDK Changes:
    • DRAM: Hynix 3rd gen ram was renamed to the proper model name.
    • DRAM: Added extra info about Micron 3rd gen ram.
    • DRAM: Added per chip MRR info.
    • HWINIT: reordered sdmmc1 power disable.
    • INPUT: Samsung touch panel was renamed to just TSP. BH2109 is manufacture date.
    • SE: Added se_aes_cmac_128, se_aes_crypt_hash and se_aes_iv_updated_clear functions.
    • ACTMON: changed to average sampling.
    • MINERVA: Change pll input divider for 2200-2266 mhz and some other fixes.
    • UTILS: sprintf will now reject NULL terminated characters for %c.
    • UTILS: allow strtol to parse unsigned integers if base is 16 and number is positive.
