NSP Update Patcher

Instructions:

1. Place your base NSP, update NSP, and prod.keys into a new folder
2. Open a terminal and cd into this folder
3. Download and run script:

curl -o nsp_update_patcher.sh https://gist.githubusercontent.com/willfaust/fb90dec409b8918290012031f09a78ef/raw/9abf2e1b020203aec0051fad99524f8269cb1edd/nsp_update_patcher.sh && chmod +x nsp_update_patcher.sh && ./nsp_update_patcher.sh

---

Notice:

• This script assumes that the larger NSP is the base, and the smaller NSP is the update
• Your free drive space should be at least three times the size of your base and update NSPs combined
• You must have your product keys dumped from your switch

Error when running it, appears to be working, but then it starts displaying "Saving romfs..." "Failed to open romfs!" in a loop one behind the other, never ending, and it makes me terminate it with "Ctrl + C". I tried runing it with Sudo, using "Bash" instead of "./" and giving the .sh permission with "chmod +x". Any suggestion??

Pd: The game is South Park: The stick of truth, and the update is smaller than the base game.
