Troubleshooting¶
My Switch crashes on boot after I installed sys-botbase!:¶
Cause: While it's almost impossible for this to happen, if your Switch crashes with Error 2001-0123 (0xf601)
and Title ID 430000000000000B
, you're using a version of sys-botbase that's incompatible with your Atmosphere version.
- Note: sys-botbase will almost never crash unless something is fundamentally wrong with the contents of your microSD card. If it does crash and need an update, an updated release will be mentioned here.
sys-botbase isn't working!:¶
Assuming you've followed the installation instructions successfully, this is probably due to the archive bit being set on one or more folders/files on your microSD card. This is usually the result of copying files to a microSD card via a Mac. If you are experiencing this issue, try running the archive bit fixer utility via Hekate for all files.
This can be done by booting into Hekate and going to Tools
> Arch bit • RCM Touch • Pkg1/2
> Fix Archive Bit
