That's pretty weird... some malfunction in your buttons maybe (maybe they get detected twice?). You can try one thing that's normally not recommended. Simpl pull the SD card out. Don't do any writing operations before that (and also not while you're taking the SD out, of course). What happens if you try that?
I was in the middle of @TheCyberQuake's NTRPack and it froze after taking the SD card out (after the copy ntrboot script), so I hard reset, but after running copy ntrboot again the paste script wouldn't work, so gave up on pasting to the original SD. So I'm not being held up or anything just wondering if maybe you could tell by the behaviour what was happening. I'll test another day if both the R and B buttons are working

Does anyone know why I can't unmount my SD card? R+A works but not R+B

You appear not to be having any problem in the video...press R+B once, the [0:] Drive will disappear, and then you can take out your SD. It's hard to tell exactly what the problem is because you're spamming it.
Also, it looks like you're pressing B+R, perhaps that's part of the problem?

Edit: come on, why didn't d0k3's posts show up? My phone is starting to bug out.

Every time I take out the SD though it warns me that I should unmount it first. I'll try again and make sure to take it out when the 0 drive is not there.

Okay, I got an idea... You know that you can only unmount the SD card in the root directory? Did you try from somewhere else? A defective SD card or SD card reader is a possibility, too, of course.

1. If I mount a NAND dump with godmode9, which contains the essential.exefs, where exactly is it located (path? (mounted NAND not the sysNAND))?
2. How do I extract the essential.exefs in OTP, SecureInfo,...?

Mount backup -> go to [I:] IMGNAND VIRTUAL -> in there, unless the backup doesn't have an essentials.exefs. You can find the one in your NAND right now in [S:]

Press A on essentials.exefs -> mount to drive.
You can also check the SHA of the entire file to check differences, A on essentials.exefs, select Calculate SHA-256

Oh that was really easy. If I had known how simple those things are, I would not have taken your time. Thank you very much!

I don't think you can do that. Just copy all the data to a computer and paste it back afterward.

If I want to remove the essentials.exefs from the virtual drive, it says it is not allowed to do so. How can I delete it. It is just for testing reasons, even if I know that these files are usefull. How can I delete it?

You can't delete files from a virtual drive. You should ask d0k3, he'd know. But there is absolutely no reason to remove an essentials.exefs file--even for 'testing purposes.'

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    So my opinion is that they could age a bit better in the future, and maybe AMD will continue improving them via drivers like they tend to do. No guarantee there but they have done it in the past. Just a feeling I have.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    cyberpunk at 4k without DLSS/fidelityfx *might* exceed 12gb
    +1
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    but that game barely runs at native 4k
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I think it was some newer games and probably poorly optimized PS4 or PS5 ports
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    they definitely will age better but i feel dlss might outweigh that since it looks about as good as native resolution and much less demanding
    +1
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    When I played Cyberpunk on my old 2080 Ti it sucked lol
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    AMD could introduce something comparable to DLSS but nvidia's got a lot more experience with that
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    least amd 7xxx has tensor cores which the previous generations didn't so there is the potential for AI upscaling
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    They have FSR or whatever it's called and yeah it's still not great
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    so AMD seem to finally be starting to take AI seriously
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Oh yeah those new 8000 CPUs have AI cores built in that's interesting
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Maybe they plan on offloading to the CPU?
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Would be kinda cool to have the CPU and GPU working in random more
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Tandem even
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    i think i heard of that, it's a good idea, shouldn't need a dedicated GPU just to run a LLM or video upscaling
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    even the nvidia shield tv has AI video upscaling
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    LLMs can be run on cpu anyway but it's quite slow
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    Have you ever been beaten by a wet spaghetti noodle by your girlfriend because she has a twin sister, and you got confused and fucked her dad?
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I had a girlfriend who had a twin sister and they would mess with me constantly.... Until one chipped a tooth then finally I could tell them apart.... Lol
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    They would have the same hair style the same clothes everything... Really messed with my head lol
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    @The Real Jdbye, I could see AMD trying to pull off the CPU GPU tandem thing, would be a way to maybe close the gap a bit with Nvidia. Plus it would kinda put Nvidia at a future disadvantage since Nvidia can't make X86/64 CPUs? Intel and AMD licensing issues... I wonder how much that has held back innovation.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    i don't think nvidia wants to get in the x64 cpu market anyways
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    you've seen how much intel is struggling getting into the gpu market
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    and nvidia is already doing ARM
