not working either.. Tried that already. Getting some weird error messages (can post them tommorow).
Thanks for the suggestion however!

Have you tried:

./create_hdd_region.sh auto

Also, type "ls" (LS in lower case) to make sure the file's in whatever folder you're trying to run it from (as you prolly already know)..

Good luck!

yes tried that also.
it's in the folder (I can see that with ls), and it has got the right permissions (I can see that by using ls -l )

However.. If I reboot to Game OS and come back into the shell, the create_hdd_region.sh is gone from the folder? Is that supposed to happen?

Yeah, I had to wget it everytime I rebooted. I've been re-writing this post a couple times, but that's confusing as hell! I can't think of why it's not seeing the file (being Arthur's day doesn't help).. I presume you're running the script before rebooting?

I'm guessing you're following the Gitbrew tutorial from here : LINK

I type the following exactly when I'm doing it:

1. cd /
2. wget tinyurl.com/hdd-region
3. chmod 755 create_hdd_region.sh
4. ./create_hdd_region.sh auto

I'll be re-doing one of mine tomorrow so I can double check then if you'd like.

Yeah. That's exactly the guide I'm following. Doing every single step, and it behaves exactly like it's supposed to, until the stupid create_hdd_region.sh script..

And your 4 points is exactly what I'm doing as well

Another thing. When I tried to run the "old" version of create_hdd_region.sh I get an error saying:

ps3stor_region: invalid option -- 1

a little into the script..

Tried reflashing 3.55 OFW, then the OtherOS++ CFW and then doing the guide again.. No luck

why not download create_hdd_region from gitbrew link here http://gitbrew.org/~glevand/ps3/scri..._hdd_region.sh

put it on flash drive and stick it drive nearest to cd drive

then enter

cd tmp/petitboot/mnt/sda1

then enter

sh create_hdd_region.sh

Doing exactly that.. I get the:

ps3stor_region: invalid option -- 1

[Mistawes]

Best thing to do is just compare MD5's.. I'll check mine in a few minutes and update this post.

Which FW PUP are you using btw?
