Think it may be in fsm?

Nevermind. I guess I answered my own question. It seems as if I am not getting into fsm. My e3 card reader lights up red and then the XMb boots up, but the card reader never turns blue or shuts off the ps3. Dang, I was hoping I was onto something.

when i did it with my x3max the dongle turned blue but the console didnt auto shut down, instead i shut it down(via software) and then turned it on, no red box etc.after doing it for a while i tried to backup my flash via preloader and it succeded and the rest of my procedures suceeded too.but yeah if the light stays red on e3 then i think you are not in fsm and i also think you need to reflash your e3 with a special downgrade payload.
