PS2 TOOL Flashrom Updates problem?

Please give a rom file t10000-rel300.bin download?
Specific how to operate?
THX

 

That file is included in the PS2 SDK.
https://archive.org/details/PlayStation2July2005SDKversion3.0.3

The SDK also includes documentation on how to use the file.

 

How to use it? With the burn disk upgrade it?

 

You need to read the documents that come with the SDK...
In this particular case, the file setup_3.0.1.pdf page 13 (page 7 in the page number) indicates the following instructions; however I have no way of testing them, so do it at your own risk.

Writing to Flash ROM
Of the DTL-T10000's internal software, the Flash ROM, which corresponds to the kernel of the PlayStation
2 is distributed in its newest release as an image file accompanying the development software. The Flash
ROM can be updated using the following procedure.
1. Check to see that the following file is included in the development software that was installed.
/usr/local/t10000-XXXX.bin
("XXXX" indicates the version number)

2. Run dsflash.
$ dsflash /usr/local/t10000-XXXX.bin
*** Updating Flash ROM …
*** Resetting…

MPU-4.0 board DSW602

3. When the program finishes and displays "Complete!", run dsreset.
$ dsreset
dsreset (Version X.X.XX…)
$

Confirming the Flash ROM Version
Starting dsibd will display the message shown below. This message can be used to confirm the Flash ROM
version that is installed in the DTL-T10000. Confirm the underlined portion.

CPUID=15, ROMGEN=2001-0219, CACH_CONFIG=1edd8, 8MB, IOP mode,

FlashROM boot <20010219-213228,ROMconf,t10000-relXX.bin:11824>

 

Without development software, how t10000-XXXX.bin is loaded into the PS2 tool?
Package disc was missing，Where to download PS2 development software?
THX

 

Really?
I linked to it in my first reply here...

 

how t10000-XXXX.bin is loaded into the PS2 tool?
Use the burn disc and enter the specified command?

 

You need to run dsflash from your PC. It should connect to the TOOL from across the network.

 

How to Run dsflash from PC to PS2 TOOL？
T10000-XXXX.bin need to distinguish between versions? For example, Japan version and the US version?

 

You are supposed to run dsflash from a terminal emulator, under Linux (or some supported OS). The '$' represents the terminal's prompt.

Code:

$ dsflash /usr/local/t10000-XXXX.bin

So if I have SDK v3.0 that has t10000-rel300.bin, it would be:

Code:

$ dsflash /usr/local/t10000-rel300.bin

The instructions from Sony assume that you installed their PS2SDK properly (and hence the .bin file is in /usr/local). If not, you need to adjust the command.

No, it is region-free.

 

PC terminal which specific program ?
Used to operate ps2 tools? how to install?

 

The program is dsflash. It is part of the Sony PS2SDK, hence it is installed if you install the Sony PS2SDK.

 

deleted; wrong thread

 

PS2 SDK installation is complete, did not find this dsflash.exe?
Which software to PS2 TOOL communication and loading command ?

 

There's no ".exe"; dsflash, as most utilities included with the SDK were meant to be run under a Linux operating system.
You'll need to install a compatible Linux OS (originally it was Red Hat Linux 6.2, NOT RHEL 6.2), and then copy the SDK to that Linux installation and run dsflash from there.
Not sure if CodeWarrior allows do flash the ROM within Windows, but that'd be something to look into and try alternatively.

 

SDK how to copy to PS2 tool ?I mean by what method？

 

You don't copy the SDK to the tool; the tool is only used to run/test/debug your game/app.
Coding, compiling, etc is done on your PC.
You really need to start reading the documents; all these random questions will get you nowhere.

 

Network environment has been set up,Running the Web browser on the development computer can access the DTL-T10000.
t10000-XXXX.bin D drive in the computer, using a browser, how to update Flash ROM? Specific steps?

 

Unless there was a Windows version of romflash, I think you need to use Linux.

Why must you update the flash ROM? For the TOOL, the flash ROM is meant to match the Sony SDK you use (i.e. when using SDK release v3.0.3, you flash t10000-rel300.bin).
The ROM is not exactly a BIOS, so it doesn't make games more compatible or give better performance.

If you are using the homebrew SDK, then newer versions are not actually important because the homebrew SDK was made to work with the default kernels from the CEX PS2, which is roughly release v1.3 (equivalent to using the WS mode flash ROM).

Some people here want to play games on the TOOL (for whatever reason), and so they update the ROM because Sony added a nice option for booting games after release v2.3 or so. On a long run, however, it is probably best if you use a common PlayStation 2 console. When the DTL-T10000 breaks, spare parts are very rare.

For older ROMs (before the disc boot option was added), developers needed to write a small program to boot their disc for testing:

Code:

int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
    LoadExecPS2("cdrom0:\\XXXX_YYY.ZZ;1", 0, NULL);
    return 0;
}

 

So for updating ROM，the development computer must be Linux, does not support Windows?
