Re: PS2 HDD Dumps
 

OPL uses an hardcoded path to store virtual memory cards. As AKuHAK said, the path is +OPL in precompiled builds, PP.SLPM-12345.OPL.OPL in his version and PP.0 in my old version.

You can create the +OPL partition to store VMCs, but it you put the KELF in the +OPL partitions, you could not start it from the HDDOSD and PSBBN. Apps have to be placed in Parent Partitions (with the prefix "PP." to be bootable).
So if you leave the hardcoded VMC path to +OPL, you will need to waste 128 MB to store the OPL KELF in another partition.

The best method is to put VMCs and OPL in the same bootable partition. Example :

PP.SLPM-12345.OPL.OPL\res
PP.SLPM-12345.OPL.OPL\VMC
PP.SLPM-12345.OPL.OPL\EXECUTE.ELF
PP.SLPM-12345.OPL.OPL\EXECUTE.KELF

res is the directory for PSBBN icons, VMC is the directory for virtual Memory Cards, EXECUTE.ELF is the decrypted OPL executable (can be launched by uLe and CodeBreaker), EXECUTE.KELF (is the KrypoELF executed by the HDDOSD and PSBBN).
Of course, if you choose to name them "EXECUTE", you must modify the SYSTEM.CNF data of the partition.
And if you want to use a cracked version of CodeBreaker with OPL, don't forget to modify the ELF launch path.


About Richi's translation :
LOL, after verification, the top.xml included in his second release is the original script. No wonder why the main menu is in Jap. However, the top.xml file of his first release is translated. I'll merge his 2 releases and see how it looks like.

хотелось бы также что бы в этот же раздел можно было устанавливать темы для OPL,по умолчанию темы всегда лежали в +OPL\THM =)

0.20 updates from other URIs :
When the bn version string (__linux.4\bn\sysconf\bnversion.dat) is edited to fool the upgrader, the updater leech this :
then the -90004 error arrives.
Maybe it has something to do with tm and dc version strings. Will verify this later... Now I'm doing packet sniffing and analyses...

Re: PS2 HDD Dumps
 

... what the fuck is PSP-AII_configuration and why is it not identical to PSP-ETC_configuration ? yakes1

А можно выложить архивчик для 0.20 версии всех партитиций?

Re: Ответ: PS2 HDD Dumps
 

Yep. and I have 0.10 too, but I didn't install, dump and try it yet.

Here's a dump of 0.20 if you want to study it. To make it boot, I've injected KELFs of 0.32, and copied the kernel from the last partition to the __system partition. Update and upgrade are not disabled.



And here's the DVD-ROM (not hacked in any way) :

О может заодно и этот дамп выложить ))
Кстати можно в будущих дампах заодно выкладывать и Backuped Linux Partition Table made by Bootice?

Re: PS2 HDD Dumps
 

Damn :( . I tried to install 0.10. During the installation, it asks for DISC2. My console is not modchiped, so I performed a single swap with an original PAL PS2 CD-ROM and the DISC2 of PSBBN 0.10. It didn't work. I swapped discs like a warrior for about one hour, no luck.

Bootice ? Seems to be a nice software=). OK, I will do that for my next dumps. I would be easier and faster than scanning 1/4 of the HDD with TestDisk::dirol::.

krHACKen,а ты не знаешь случаем какого нибуть конвертера в PSS PSM?,что бы конвертил сразу а не как через PSS Plex,сначало деление файла на звук и видео а только потом конвертирование

Re: Ответ: Re: PS2 HDD Dumps
 

I have no idea. I made a lot of PSS muxing, stream coding/decoding for PS2 game rips before, but the BBN is different. I think the BBN may support more codecs and containers. The most close to PSS should be MPEG-2 Program Stream.
PSBBN is nearly open to Linux coders now. I'm pretty sure we will see new exotic features in the future. Please someone port the Matroska Splitter to the PSBBN, hahahah. Seriously, I really hope that people find their interest in the development for PSBBN stuff.
I can't try muxing methods for now because...

... Richi contacted me. Now I'm studying PSBBN apps download/installation. He sent me a KOEI channel backup and 2 game packages. I'm gonna see how that shit works::Download::.
