    Then you can use a PS3 memory card adapter (CECHZM1) and a certain piece of software (PS3 MCA) to install FMCB into the memory card.

    Not only you will have full unrestricted access to the memory card, but you can also bind KELF files to the memory card using it. :thumbsup:

    Thanks for answer :) But if I don't have MC adapter? Maybe any other easier way? (Like using PSF explorer to copy boot.elf? - will it work?)

    No it won't work. You need a mean to get uLE working which involves having a fully working PS2 with laser and modchip.

    If you have some PS2 MC with uLE on it, you can install the boot partition on the HDD but without that you're out of luck.

    Which takes us back to the problem of having or not FMCB. :shrug:

    If you look around, you will notice that people figured out how to make any harddrive bootable on the PS2 a few months ago.

    Edit: Bootable without any kind of modchip so DEV2 is now obsolete.
