Should I update Nintendo Switch before starting RCM process?
I have a v1 unpatched Switch. I'd like to start the process of installing custom firmware. I read this note about being careful to make sure Atmosphere and Hekate support the latest firmware before updating, which they both seem to. But there's also something about gamecard firmware?

Could some please help me out after updating some files
Make sure you have most update files from the main repo GitHub. https://github.com/CTCaer/hekate/releases. Follow the update instructions

Modded Lite Won't boot hekate.
I've installed modchip on Lite. It shows the "no sd card" logo. I've tried both hekate official gitthub and HATS packages loaded into an SD card, but it gives a black screen. It returns to no sd card when I press the power button for 10 seconds after removing the sd card.

Download Hekate 6.0.4 from the Github Page: https://github.com/CTCaer/hekate/releases/tag/v6.0.4 And move the extracted ZIP Contents to the Root of your SD Card.
