Hi, first of all, love from México, thanks so much to all you guys to take the time to answer, you're the real heros, so this is my situation:

3 weeks ago i recibed sx pro, didn´t move anything on my switch, i had OF on 7.1 and a micro SD with saves and data from games i had in the past, didin't delete anything and pute the sx files and everything works perfectly, i back up the sysnand and put it on my pc and delete it from the SD, also i backup the SX os License and put it on my pc, also created the emunand and put it on a file on the micro sd and activate autorcm, so far so good, all perfect, games work great.....

so toy i saw that team xecuter release the new sx 2.7.1, so my head blows with a ton of doubts, i decided a days before, to order a new 250Gb SD, so here are my doubts:

1. Its better start all the process with SX fresh new or justo copy all the data from the old SD card?
2. If i copy all the data from old SD card, how is the process to update OF to 8.1 and emunando to 8.1?
3. if i star all over, how is all the process?, remove the sd card, quite autorcm, start on OF, update to 8.1 via nintendo and then start the process with SX os like the first time?
4. if i make the steep 3, when i get install sx, must back up a newsysnand? and mustcreate a new EMUNAND? and if a create the new emunand these will be on 8.1 firmware?

PLEASE PLEASE help me, i got tired to search it on google, i must be a fool, thanks a lot for your time, really i will appreciate if you share a tuttorials or something

1. SX OS needs only boot.dat file. Rest is up to you.
2 run EmuNAND and use CHoiDjourNX with AutoRCM disabled. I don't even know why you are using AutoRCM if you hav eEmuNAND. :)
3. Why do you need OFW 8.0.1 ? I would keep OFW as it is and update only EmuNAND.
4. EMuNAND is separate being and you have to update it separately.

Make sure you have any custom themes removed (layeredFS in sxos/titles) because you will get error on booting 8.0.1
